From install to first export
A general walkthrough of the setup flow. Screens and wording in the actual app may differ slightly by version and region.
Download from the official store
Install the app from Google Play or the App Store — both links are on our download page. It's free with no account required just to install.
Log in with your Instagram account
Sign in using your existing Instagram credentials. This is what connects drafts and performance insights to your posts.
Start a project or record fresh footage
Import clips from your camera roll, or record directly in the app with adjustable resolution, frame rate and flash controls.
Cut, layer and style on the timeline
Trim to the frame, adjust speed and volume per clip, add filters, text, stickers and sound — everything happens on one horizontal timeline.
Clean up audio and generate captions
Reduce background noise, then generate captions automatically and restyle them to match your edit.
Export and share
Export in up to 4K with no watermark, then share directly to Instagram or save to your camera roll for anywhere else.
