Facebook has officially announced its Collab app, which the social media platform previously launched as an experiment. In the month of May 2020, Facebook began to test the Collab application based on invite-only BETA.

Audio syncing is one of the improvements that will help users adjust their recordings to be aligned with others in the Collab.

The app will allow users to club three different videos together and post individual videos on the platform. These videos will be visible to a public “Collab” feed where users can view and play along with them.
“Collab automates the complexity of audio and video syncing so you can easily produce a final composition you love,” the Facebook NPE team said. The social media giant also said that no musical training or experience is required to use the app. To create a collab, you’re required to swipe on any row to bring in a new video clip that could sound good with your composition.
