Meta, the parent company of social media giant Facebook, has announced the rollout of new features for its short-form video platform, Facebook Reels. These features will allow users to create more engaging and dynamic video content for their audience.

One of the most significant updates is an expansion of the maximum video length from 60 seconds to 90 seconds. This gives creators more time to showcase their skills and ideas in a single video, making it easier to tell a story or share information. Additionally, users will be able to add music tracks to their videos from a larger library of licensed music, making it easier to find the perfect soundtrack for their content.

Other new features include a variety of filters and effects that can be applied to videos, such as text overlays, animations, and AR filters. These features will allow creators to make their videos more visually interesting and dynamic, helping them to stand out in a crowded social media landscape.

According to Meta, these new features are part of the company’s ongoing efforts to improve the user experience on Facebook and provide more opportunities for creators to engage with their audience. By making it easier to create engaging and dynamic video content, Meta hopes to encourage more users to share their creativity with the world.

The new features will be available to all Facebook Reels users starting today. Users can access the new tools by tapping the “Create” button in the Reels section of the Facebook app
