The company has launched two new features for posting videos on the app:
- Overlay captions in multiple languages and customise their look.
- There is a Green Screen option using which you can add custom backgrounds using posts or photos from your camera roll.
Commenting on this new launch, Nikita mentioned, “One of our biggest priorities is to give creators the tools to create original content & reward those creators.” The company has also planned to release more updates for the video editor in the coming weeks.
Over the past few years, X has experimented with various video-focused features to make video creation and editing more seamless for creators. And this latest release is part of X’s broader efforts to strengthen video content on the platform.
Let’s see if these new features will also be released for the Android app, or if they will just be restricted to the iOS app,
