But what if you're looking for a lens effect? Lens effects can be called filters but don't actually show up in the "Filters" section when you're creating a video. They're in their own separate category called "Effects", which you'll find to the left of the record button.
1. Tap "Effects."
2. Again, scroll to search, or select a category of effects to choose from.
