YouTube is also joining the competition between TikTok and Instagram Reels. While the social network has its own audience thanks to its content creators, the feature isn\'t yet well-known enough to compete with the other two platforms. YouTube Shorts is the new feature and aims to provide creation tools for editing short videos for the social network. YouTube Shorts is the initiative Google wants to popularize. The tool will provide short videos, effects, and catchy music for content creators to add to their YouTube channels. To use YouTube Shorts, users must go to YouTube and press the Create button in the center of the bottom menu. The Create Short option will appear in the drop-down menu. For it to work, you need to have the latest app update. The first time you use it, the tool will request access to the camera and microphone of the mobile device being used. To make videos longer than 15 seconds, users must press the 15-second icon to increase the duration to 60 seconds. To record, you must press and hold the capture button for the desired duration. A red bar at the top will advance, indicating the recording time. To stop recording, simply release the button. This can be done repeatedly until the indicated time is used, or you can end the video whenever you wish. When you finish recording, you must press the checkmark to update. The tool also allows you to adjust the appearance of text and sounds. The timeline tool allows you to adjust when the text and music will be displayed. Finally, you must add a title to the video and define whether it will be a public or private short, as well as whether the content is suitable for children.
