Instagram's Edits Video Editor is Now Available on Mac

Instagram today expanded its Edits video editing app to the Mac. Edits for Mac is intended for larger projects that benefit from a big screen and the control of a mouse and keyboard.

The app includes Instagram's licensed and royalty-free audio libraries, sound and video effects, and unlimited automatic captions.

Edits for Mac has a full multi-track timeline, keyframes for dynamic transitions, and precise audio waveforms for accurate cuts. There is an option to import LUTs or font files, along with support for Model Context Protocol so AI agents can use the app. The Edits team says splitting, cutting, and trimming are easier.

Videos created with the app can be published directly to Instagram or downloaded to share on other platforms. Multiple horizontal and vertical aspect ratios are included, and Edits offers 4K watermark-free export.

Edits for Mac can be downloaded from the Instagram website.

Whenever IG and TikTok release new apps the girls pick them up quickly and learn from each other fast. They share tips and templates and become really good at editing content. They learn about AI and VFX faster than boys now.

The Asian demographic in particular pick up everything quickly while westerners beat each other up for manufactured reasons. Everyone who considers themselves intelligent, creative, scientific, mathematical and literate should be forward looking.

Wow. This is great news!

I’ve been wanting this for months!

Finally I can stop making clips for socials on my phone, which super sucks as I’m a Mini user. 👎

(No, I’m not buying and dealing with a larger phone)
