Instagram head Adam Mosseri just announced a video editing app called Edits. Mosseri said the app is meant to rival CapCut, a video editing app that went offline along with TikTok. Edits is available for preorder on the iOS App Store.

Update: CapCut, Marvel Snap and other ByteDance apps have returned to the US (at least for now). They may still be banned if a sale doesn't go through again but for the meantime you can enjoy CapCut and forget all about Instagram's upcoiming Edits app. The original story continues below.

Instagram has announced Edits, a free video editing app that sounds a lot like CapCut. In a video posted to Threads on Sunday, Instagram head Adam Mosseri described Edits as a "full suite of creative tools," and briefly ran through its planned features.
