On the top charts in the App Store, the new app Musical.ly is getting more and more popular.

This app allows users to take videos of themselves lip syncing voice overs of their favorite songs and post them to any social media. This app also includes awesome filters for the videos and sped up or slow motion effects as well. Users can record multiple clips that splice together for great jump cuts that transition from one scene to the next.

Today’s most popular songs and phrases are included in the app, but also allows users to access their own music.

Senior Mckenzie Scott said, “It is exciting to see the finished video after making is because you have to record in slow motion and the product is sped up. It’s a fun app to have fun and do with friends.”

Musical.ly is more than just an app for lip syncing. It is a new social media network full of trending videos, talented creators, and entertainment. This app is creative and there is nothing else like it.
