musical.ly 1.0.3

Add music and sound effects to your videos, or lip sync your favorite songs
Google Play Store is filled with all sort of nice applications that allow users to tap in their creative side and share results with friends on social networks. If you're a fan of music and like to edit your own videos, give musical.ly a try.

It's a nice application filled with all sort of tools and some inspiration that you can get from other users. It sports a very modern design with some nice tools at hand, but it does need some getting used to.

Modern UI that might seem a bit confusing

The app doesn't come with a tutorial or any kind of instructions which is quite inconvenient considering that new users like to get some guidance when launching a new application on their phones.

The first thing that you need to do after launching the app is to register with an account. You can do so using Facebook, Twitter or your email address. Next, you'll have to provide a profile picture so people can recognize you on the network. The interface is a bit confusing, it doesn't have that intuitive layout with a side menu so users will need some time to get used to it.

Check out all sort of interesting videos

The app launches with various videos that you can check out, simply swipe the screen down to find new ones. A toolbar at the bottom of the screen allows users to access all sort of features. They can watch videos, like or comment on them.

There's also the option to follow users, save videos to your gallery or share them on various social networks like Facebook, Messenger, Instagram or more. Each video comes with hashtags and if you want to find them faster, you'll need to use the search bar.

More features and tools

Users have the option to record their own videos, add effects or a soundtrack to them. There are many tools for editing your videos and sharing them with other users from the network. It even has some contests that you can enter and compete against others.

It gives you the option to challenge users or start duets with them. It comes with a gallery of songs that you can apply to your videos and it also has the option to add some from your media files. Still, the app could use some more tools to make it more appealing to users.
