TikTok faces a potential ban this Saturday, and YouTube is introducing new features that may attract TikTok creators seeking to grow their audience with Shorts.
YouTube has announced a new suite of editing features for Shorts, its answer to the ever-popular TikTok. This comes after Amazon made a last-minute bid to purchase TikTok’s U.S. operations.
To start with, there is an improved video editor for creators that, according to YouTube, will make it easier to rearrange clips, add music and text, and preview the Short. This feature, which has been a «top request from Shorts creators», will be coming this spring.
The second tool YouTube is introducing allows creators to automatically sync their edits to beats.
