How to Turn Video into Boomerang Using Capcut

A primeira coisa que você precisa fazer é baixar o aplicativo do Capcut. Criar uma conta é totalmente opcional, porém é bem útil se você pretende usar o aplicativo em mais de um dispositivo. Na página inicial, acesse em “Novo projeto” e selecione o vídeo da sua galeria que você deseja transformar em Boomerang e acesse em adicionar.

Go to the video in the playback track and look for the "Duplicate" option in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. Next, select the duplicated video in the same way as you selected the original before, and go to the "Reverse" option, which will turn the video into a boomerang. If you want to make it longer, just keep duplicating and reversing the original. Make sure you don't have two reverse videos in a row or two originals in a row, as this way the video will no longer be a boomerang

Exporting is simple: click on the blue button in the top right corner, wait for the app to load your video and select where you want to send it. CapCut allows you to post directly to TikTok or even Instagram stories. However, if you're wondering how to turn a video into a boomerang and post it on Instagram, it's best to follow the steps below. 

How to Boomerang a Video Using Instagram

Unlike CapCut, Instagram doesn't have a tool for you to turn a video that's already in your gallery into a boomerang, but it does have an option in stories that automatically turns a recording you've made in the app into a looping video. 

The first thing you need to do is go into stories and click on the infinity symbol, which symbolizes the boomerang, on the left-hand side of your screen. When you access it, the next video you record with your camera will automatically be transformed into a boomerang. When it's ready, Instagram will give you some tools if you want to shorten or speed it up.
