New Instagram video creation features

1. Instagram is currently testing the ability to zoom, crop, and rotate individual videos. Change your mind? Save time when editing with the new undo and redo features. Instagram is also making it easier to work with existing tools like Voiceover.

2- Instagram is testing the ability to use our Clip Hub to add sound clips to videos. Engage with your fans by playing with memes and encouraging them to create their own remixes.

3. Also added 10 new text-to-speech voices in English, available in select countries. Six new fonts and text styles, available in hundreds of languages, allow you to express your creativity. You can add outlines to make your text clearer.

4- Now you can quickly jump to an audio page from the top of the camera list and find inspiration.

"Drafts" have a new look!

Video editing just got even easier: all your saved drafts are displayed in a handy view. Can't remember which draft you edited? Soon you'll be able to view, rename and schedule drafts in advance.

To help you create more unique videos and stories, Instagram is testing the ability to create custom stickers from your own photos and videos. The ability to create custom stickers is based on insights from the Segment Anything artificial intelligence model.

Create the mood of your posts with new filters.

The new photo filters are here! Create the mood you want by editing your photos and carousels with the latest filters. With these updates, you can use a variety of options to design your posts, from subtle colour palettes to expressive styles.

The publishing process has also been optimised to make it easier to find the tools you need when editing. Finding what you need in your camera roll is made easier with improved preview, zoom, and search functions.
