Hours after TikTok was pulled in the United States, Meta seized the opportunity and unveiled a new Edits app. It's intended to be a replacement for CapCut, the editing app by TikTok owner ByteDance, as well as TikTok's built-in video editor.

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.
