Some creators will make shortform videos in one app, download their video, and repost the same clip to other platforms. In the post, YouTube is clear about why it\u2019s adding watermarks.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve added a watermark to the Shorts you download so your viewers can see that the content you\u2019re sharing across platforms can be found on YouTube Shorts,\u201d it reads.<\/p>\n All the major shortform video platforms are fighting for creators and viewers, and other companies have gone about the cross-platform sharing issue in a variety of ways. Downloaded TikTok videos have long contained watermarks and the creator\u2019s username, so viewers can easily go to the app to find the original video. <\/p>\n Meanwhile, it was no secret that many Instagram Reels creators were reposting their TikToks \u2014 watermarks and all \u2014 instead of making original content. Last year, Instagram said it wouldn\u2019t promote Reels<\/a> that had its competitor\u2019s watermark. In April, it went even further, saying it would tweak its algorithm to give preference<\/a> to \u201coriginal content\u201d \u2014 essentially dangling a carrot for creators to make stuff just for Reels.<\/p>\n YouTube has been heavily pushing Shorts<\/a> since it launched the product in 2020. The company set aside $100 million<\/a> to dole out to creators who make Shorts, and shortform clips are taking up more and more real estate on the YouTube app, including in recommendations and a dedicated Shorts tab. <\/p>\n The Shorts watermark will begin rolling out in the next few weeks on desktop and expand to mobile in the coming months, according to the post.
