Update: CapCut, Marvel Snap and other ByteDance apps have returned to the US (at least for now). They may still be banned if a sale doesn't go through again but for the meantime you can enjoy CapCut and forget all about Instagram's upcoiming Edits app. The original story continues below.

Instagram head Adam Mosseri just announced a video editing app called Edits. Mosseri said the app is meant to rival CapCut, a video editing app that went offline along with TikTok. Edits is available for preorder on the iOS App Store.

Instagram has launched Edits, a new video-editing suite, claiming it outperforms CapCut, developed by TikTok's ByteDance.

The tool is slated to be released on March 13, Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram, announced. TikTok has since restored service in the US.

Instagram is making a host of sweeping changes in a bid to attract TikTok users as the future of that app hangs in the balance. TikTok temporarily shut down after the Supreme Court upheld a law that required ByteDance to divest its stake in the company by Jan. 19 or face a national ban.

CapCut is a free video-editing platform created, owned and operated by ByteDance. It was launched in the U.S. in 2020. It was the second most downloaded photo and video app in the Apple App Store after Instagram, according to USA Today.

Instagram is launching a new app, Edits, that will immediately become a CapCut competitor when it launches next month. You can pre-order the app on the Apple App Store now, with Google Play Store availability to follow.

TikTok was banned and restored within the same weekend. Find out what other apps owned by ByteDance, are in limbo below.

The short-term TikTok ban also included other ByteDance-owned apps and Meta has already seized the opportunity by announcing a new competing app.

Apple said apps developed by ByteDance and its subsidiaries would no longer be available for download or updates on the US app store from Sunday.

With popular applications missing from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store in the US thanks to a ban (which looks set to be repealed by President Trump once he is sworn in), Facebook and Instagram-owner Meta has swooped in to scoop up content creators left adrift.
