YouTube Shorts rolls out to more than 100 countries

The service is still in beta, though.

YouTube Shorts, the company's short-form video service and an obvious competitor to TikTok, is rolling out globally.

YouTube says the service will now be available in "more than 100 countries" â€" everywhere where the video platform itself is available.

YouTube Shorts was officially launched in September 2020, featuring 15-second videos â€" the same time limit as TikTok (though TikTok later expanded maximum video length, first to one minute, and then, recently, to three minutes). The service was first made available to creators in India, then rolling out to the U.S. in March 2021 and the UK in June.

The main advantage of YouTube Shorts over TikTok, for creators, is the ability to tap into YouTube's massive library of audio content to include in their shorts.

Other than that, the app, which is available on both iOS and Android, allows creators to tie multiple video clips together into one, speed controls, and a timer and countdown to make capturing the right moment easier. New features that are coming include automatically added captions, adding clips from the phone's gallery to the Shorts camera, as well as the ability to add filters and effects, with more coming in the future.
