Facebook announced new video-related features today ranging from editing to discovery to make the platform competitive with YouTube and TikTok. It is also renaming its “Watch” tab to “Video” tab to unify all its video experiences under one place.
The company is porting editing tools for Reels to videos for the main feed — this way, people can create short and long videos from one place. Meta is rolling out these tools to Meta Business Suite users already. Additionally, the company is releasing additional editing features, such the ability to adjust speed, reverse, or replace a clip. Meta is also introducing support for HDR videos on Reels — both video uploading and playback.
