What is Instagram Reels?
Reels is an Instagram feature that allows users to make TikTok-like short videos with dubbed dialogues and songs. The videos appear on your timeline, and unlike Instagram Stories, don’t disappear after 24 hours. Instagram recently extended Reels support to up to 60 seconds from 30 seconds. It also allows users to add music, AR effects, timers, countdown, align, and video speed to create unique and fun short videos. Despite being a TikTok clone, Instagram Reels has gained positive responses from content creators like influencers, brands, and users.
Instagram Reels, much like regular videos and photos, can only be watched online. Here’s how you can download/ save Instagram Reels online using web tools and apps:
