Instagram just dropped the brand-new Edits app this week as a little post-Easter treat for us all. 

This shiny new video editing app is set to make Reels creation smoother, slicker, and way more creative 🙌..

In this blog, I’ll introduce you to the app with my easy-to-follow Edits Starter Kit. This guide will reduce any overwhelm and will ease you in gently to the new app interface.

Instagram now allows you to add text overlays on image & carousel posts within the app!

This is a fabulous update that will save users a lot of time. Ultimately you can now add text overlays onto your images within the app rather than doing this step in Canva 🙌! Read onto learn how to do it.

Big Insta news...Instagram has launched its first big feature of the year....Notes. The feature arrived last week (Feb 2023) and it’s already been adopted by in a big way so far.

However, I also saw many users very confused by the new feature so I thought I'd write a quick blog to explain what Notes are and how you can use them to benefit your business.
