Instagram’s 'Edits' Hits 7 Million Downloads in a Week, Surpassing CapCut’s Launch
Meta’s new video editing app, Edits, has made a strong debut in the social media space, racking up 702,900 iOS downloads in its first two days and now surpassing 7.1 million total downloads. Designed for seamless creation of Instagram Reels, Stories, and other short-form content, Edits offers an ad-free experience, intuitive drag-and-drop tools, and built-in analytics, appealing to creators looking for a streamlined, high-quality editing solution.
The app supports features like multi-clip editing, automatic color correction, and custom overlays, making it easy for users to produce polished content without a steep learning curve. Its user-friendly interface and focus on creator needs have contributed to its rapid adoption, positioning it as a serious contender in the crowded video editing market.
Still, Edits faces strong competition from ByteDance’s CapCut, which remains dominant thanks to its deep integration with TikTok, a rich library of templates and effects, and tools designed to help content go viral. CapCut’s cross-platform compatibility and variety continue to give it an edge for many creators.
While it’s still early, Edits is leveraging Meta’s ecosystem and resources to grow rapidly. Whether it can outpace CapCut or establish its own unique place among creators will depend on how well it continues to evolve and respond to user demands.
