Edits an Instagram app Reviews

When I first opened EditsanInstagramapp , I was in love with it. However, I quickly realized how glitchy it was. It kept freezing and telling me it couldn’t play my audio and I would have to completely exit EditsanInstagramapp . Not to mention that I adjusted the volume on every clip, only for it to not save the setting on random ones requiring me to rewatch it over and over and keep adjusting clips multiple times.

Plus, it just lags. It took hours to edit a video that would’ve taken 30 minutes in CapCut without glitches to slow me down.

I do love the interface and the new fonts. It’s very easy to use… when it works.

Music will not download with reel unless shared directly with IG after. Ok no big deal. But then you can’t save it as a draft? Please fix. Would be great to see the ghost layout of where things natively appear when people browse reels so we don’t spend time adding in text only to find it covered. In the reels editor on IG you at least get grid marks that snap your text into place and show you the top and bottom threshold. Also make it easy to extend text to the whole clip. Dragging is so tedious and takes too much time on longer videos. Overall I’m not a huge reel creator so not really seeing why this is much different than in IG.

*and the stars keep falling. Edits made me update IG when sharing the reel directly (only way it will let you use music!) and now all my drafts are gone.

I was very much looking forward to this being released and so far I’ve tried to make two reels, both with frustration. I cannot figure out how to edit the size of a picture. It cuts off sides of an image and doesn’t have handles that allow you to adjust the image size. It just slides around the screen when you try and adjust it. Also, some of the transitions don’t work properly. They glitch and then EditsanInstagramapp jumps back to the beginning of the timeline or just stops playing. I’ve had to remove several just to keep editing. Hope Meta fixes the glitches quickly.

Was looking forward to an integrated video editing app for Instagram. Trying it out on my personal account before I start using it for our business account and there’s still some things that need to be worked on. For example, the cut out feature when you shoot in front of green screen doesn’t seem to work yet. It did a pretty good job of removing the green screen from my original footage and shows up in the preview on EditsanInstagramapp correctly, but when you export the video, your green screen footage suddenly disappears. You can still hear the audio from your green screen clip though.

There are other options out there they give you a lot more transitions between clips, but I’m sure that should improve in EditsanInstagramapp overtime. Looking forward to what they can do with EditsanInstagramapp, but it still isn’t a replacement for anything that you’re used to.

Two stars for effort. As someone with 25 years in web and UI design and extensive experience with various editing apps, I was excited to try Instagram’s new ‘Edit’ app. It turned out to be a massive disappointment. The only slightly redeeming feature is easy access to Instagram music, but everything else falls flat. EditsanInstagramapp prioritizes pointless features like tracking ideas and inspiration—something nobody needs from a video editor—while completely neglecting essential tools like reversing clips or applying common filters, transitions, and effects. It claims to offer high-quality footage and 4K exports without watermarks, but that’s a bare minimum expectation. The core functionality is severely lacking; it feels like a rushed, underdeveloped product that’s nowhere near ready for prime time. If Instagram wants to compete with heavyweights like CapCut, they need to bring something innovative to the table. Right now, it’s just a half-baked imitation that fails to deliver anything new or worthwhile. If you’re serious about video editing, stick to what you know works. Instagram should focus on improving their main app and put developers’ time into fixing existing bugs instead of wasting resources on a half-hearted attempt to compete

EditsanInstagramapp def has some ways to go when it comes to speed of editing. I have never had this much of a headache editing videos before. Between the sound playback feature not working (I have full, high speed WiFi) and the a delay on playing back the actual video or completely freezing is so frustrating. If I didn’t have so much done in the hour and 40 minutes this has taken me (I’m a pretty quick editor and this is a long time for me) I would start over in a different app, but I keep hoping whatever bug this is will suddenly work… I would stick to your regular editing app if you’re looking to switch — at least for the time being until this is better established. Also, there’s no way to sync your videos to the best of the music, not that I’ve found and I searched quite thoroughly. Hopefully you have better luck than me.

At the beginning first release it’s a good app for editing with almost all basic features.
It need to add many other features that I think it’s a must be in the next updates:
1- add templates feature ( same from Instagram or create templates)
2- as a video creator we need to search bar to see ideas about something, now scrolling show random trending video with trending sounds ( if you combine search with trending audio and reels will be great)
3- collaborations projects still not available
4- add key frame for videos
5- overlay videos with modes like darken..
6- ability to design a custom intro for a reel that can be used in the future
7- texts movement and hiding behind subjects
8- more sound effects must be added
9- ability to export directly to Instagram as a story not only a reel
10- in ideas add progress, like still thinking, in progress, finished so we can know which ideas remaining
11- AI tool to help you write a reel description with the trending hashtags related to video


I hope that you can read my suggestions, there is more maybe in the future
And thanks for let us use Instagram with a professional way like this

Hi! Garden_ig__ here! I love what the Edits App has to offer so far, but I recently uploaded a reel through Edits and the text overlay is… not good 😬 I can’t see the words or emojis properly. When I edited through EditsanInstagramapp it looked fine and exactly what I wanted (I customized it myself) but after I uploaded the reel, the overlay became way lighter than it appeared and I can barely see the text, much less the emojis!

I couldn’t find a review or feedback tab within EditsanInstagramapp , but will be happy to change my rating when this is fixed! I’m excited about EditsanInstagramapp and will make editing my reels easier to do and upload directly to IG and FB! 🫶🌱💚🪴

EditsanInstagramapp is very easy to use, and I love uploading to my Instagram account. However, there are a couple of issues:

1. When you download or export the video, the audio is delayed, which makes it inconsistent with the lip movement in the video.
2. I wish there was an option to select which Instagram account you want to upload to, similar to how it works with Facebook.
3. I would also appreciate having the option to save a draft on Instagram when uploading, instead of just being able to share it immediately or schedule it.

To start with the pros. Edits has probably the smoothest free timeline editor I’ve tried. It feels pretty precise. Like instagram its filters and video are great. Every other feature seems very polished for what is there.

Now for the critiques.
Right now it feels like a very limited but smooth version of CapCut (that finally has dark mode!) MY BIGGEST GRIPE is definitely the lack of keyframes. I believe that just adding this simple feature would take Edits from a pretty good timeline editor to a HEAVY HITTER against a CapCut. I wish you could upload your own fonts as you can only use provided fonts. While the feature set seems pretty good, I feel it lacks any unique features. It kinda just “gets the job done” I feel that if they were to add features that set it apart from any other editor that could definitely encourage people to ditch their old editors to jump to this new one.

Overall I feel that Edits has a LOT of great potential. If they act quick and decisive adding key features like keyframes, custom fonts, and more unique features that set it apart from any other editor, Edits could be an INCEDIBLE and preferred editor for any phone editor.

Thank you for listening to my TED Talk. 🤙

I originally downloaded EditsanInstagramapp hoping it would help prevent my videos from glitching when uploading to Insta. I haven’t uploaded anything to it yet, so I can’t speak on how well it performs there. As for the editing tools, they’re pretty basic—there aren’t many adjustment options. I’d love to see more flexibility, like being able to change the speed of specific parts of a video instead of the whole clip. On the plus side, I do appreciate that the splice tool is front and center in the toolbar—it’s a small detail, but super convenient!

This is a great easy to use, love-able interface, and efficient editing app. EditsanInstagramapp works like CapCut, but it has a sleeker interface. Way sleeker. The other great thing about Edits is that it is connected straight to your Instagram, so you can see insights on all of your reels.

The reason I put a four star is because one of the projects I was working on glitched. Even after I put edits in the project, I’ll press the play button and nothing will happen.

Other than that issue I can’t say more how much I love EditsanInstagramapp.

It’s a very nice app and it works great. It feels like it’s a clone of CapCut. Theres a lot of features not there but at the same time lots of paid features on CapCut is there for free. The integration with Instagram and Facebook works seamlessly, but if you upload a 16:9 video it will change it to a 9:16 video if you wanna upload it to Instagram or Facebook. The inspiration reels are fantastic because I could just click on the three dots at the top and they will take me to the same video on Instagram. In total a fantastic app, but needs more features.

I post exclusively to instagram and their built in editor was always buggy and didn’t have all the features I wanted. EditsanInstagramapp solved that! It’s everything you could have wanted all in one place to make professional reels. Great transitions and effects.

The only feedback I have for developers is that “slip” should be right next to cut, as those are the most used buttons and right now I need to pan over to slip multiple times when making my videos!

Having the ability to edit and choose trending sounds from Instagram is actually really cool. What makes this stand out over its competitors is that if youre an influencer on IG you get direct analytics from your videos right on edits. Its still new and while its far better than editing directly through IG it's still lacking a few features that others have. That said, I am thoroughly enjoying playing around with it and am excited to see what more it brings to the table.

EditsanInstagramapp just came out and so far is been great man you should try it and is even free in my opinion is better then capcut because capcut is turning into a paid app and hopefully for this that doesn’t happen and this 🥰is basically the best for clip farming and getting all audios from instagram❤️💚
But i hope a update comes out for landscape&longvideos and then i will become a full time editor here
Hope you received my message mark!◼️

I used the Edits app for the first time yesterday and for someone who uses CapCut(which you have to pay for👀). I can comfortably say that EditsanInstagramapp is one of the best video editing apps I’ve used, it’s very smooth and user friendly. The quality of the video was not lost due to editing, no water marks/instagram logo when it shows in your gallery. Overall 10/10 app can’t wait for future updates😁

I usually use premiere pro on my pc to edit my videos to post to instagram. However, I was a bit lazy this time to transfer my videos to my pc to edit. Initially, I used capcut but I didn’t like the fact that it has a watermark for the free version. I downloaded EditsanInstagramapp because someone I followed on Instagram mentioned it. Didn’t disappoint me at all. For my use case, it’s very simple edits so it works really well for me.

So far, I’m loving this Edits app. As a content creator who solely uses Instagram to create reels, this is a nice smooth upgrade to the internal IG edit tool. I like that there are additional features on Edits like transitons, built-in inspo reels, sounds, ideas, etc. and it’s cool that insights are directly available through EditsanInstagramapp itself. I also like that there is the automatic save feature so I don’t have to worry about saving each edit before publishing my work.

App is great so far love it but the only thing I would change is, the way you have to shorten clips is a little annoying if you have to cut a lot out although if the clips are short it’s not a problem. Would be nice to have the same concept as making your reel on instagram where it just shortens as you hold it. Hard to explain I know but maybe developers will know what I mean lol
