Making Reel on Instagram will soon be easier than it is now, as new reports show that the tech giant is currently working on new tools for the app.
According to a report in Business Insider, the Meta-owned platform is currently working on a new editing feature that will allow users to replicate Reel’s cropping and formatting with their own photos and videos.
The reported feature will be called “Using a template” and is currently being tested on a small group of users. This new update to Instagram comes as a move to compete with TikTok, a platform for creating short videos.
The feature was released for beta testing around March this year.
How will this new feature work? If you’ve seen Reel on Instagram, you’ll know that this is a short video that is played with music or voice while photos or videos or both are played on the screen.
But it’s also a bit tricky, because in order for Reels to be successful on Instagram and look more presentable, users need to match their image or video to the time brand of the sound.
And the “Use template” feature will do the job for you. Yes, according to reports, the upcoming feature allows the user to replace videos with their own content, while the feature automatically matches the time stamp of the template.
This new feature on Instagram is sure to be a hit with content creators and could enable TikTok to work for its money.
