What Edits is
Edits is a free mobile app for creating and editing videos on a phone. It supports clips up to 10 minutes and exports at up to 4K without an added watermark. Editing tools include a frame-accurate timeline, clip-level controls, auto-enhance, green screen, and transitions. It can generate customizable captions automatically, enhance audio, and remove background noise. Creative options include AI video effects, title cards, storyboards, text styles, templates, and Reels for remixing or inspiration. A teleprompter and Ideas tab can support planning, with saved Reels, audio, and notes in the tab. Edits provides real-time feedback on factors that can affect distribution, such as skip rate. Videos can be shared directly to Instagram and Facebook or exported for other platforms. Getting started requires downloading the app and signing in with an Instagram account. It is listed for Android and iOS; the App Store listing specifies iPhone with iOS 16.3 or later. Google Play says data is encrypted in transit and notes possible collection and sharing of personal and device information.
