Meta’s video editing app, Edits, is getting a desktop version. Until now it’s been phone-only, which made it tricky to fit into a proper content workflow if you do most of your work at a computer.

The desktop version brings:

• A bigger screen and more precise editing controls
• Projects that sync between your phone and computer, so you can start an edit on one and finish it on the other
• A real alternative to CapCut, which has offered desktop editing for years

Meta first announced the desktop version in June, alongside an AI assistant for Edits that suggests content ideas based on your Instagram performance.

Our take: If you’re making Reels for your business, Edits is worth a look. It’s free, it’s built for Instagram, and desktop access makes it much easier to use alongside the rest of your tools. For anyone managing several accounts, editing on a proper screen is a very welcome change.
