Why Ice Effects Are Trending Right Now
Instagram Reels is currently filled with creative edits and special effects. Among them, the ice effect is one of the fastest-growing trends. People are using it to give their videos a unique, frosty vibe that instantly attracts more viewers and engagement.
Step 1: Install the InstEdit App
To create these effects, you’ll need an app called InstEdit. Just head over to the Google Play Store and search for InstEdit. Download and install the app — it’s free to use.
Step 2: Open the App and Import Your Video
