Why Don’t I Have Instagram Reels? Where To Find The Video Feature

Tech

These tips should do the trick.

On August 5, 2020, Instagram released its short-form video feature, Instagram Reels. Similar to TikTok, Reels allows users to upload videos and then share them with their followers or the app's larger community. While Instagram had been testing the feature in since November 2019 in Brazil, it's available to all users in 50 countries, including the U.S, India, Brazil, France, Germany, UK, Japan, and Australia. But even though it’s been widely rolled out for a while, it’s possible that you still can’t find Instagram Reels on your app. Rest assured, the feature isn’t just for select users, and if you don’t have Instagram Reels, there are some easy troubleshooting tips that can help you find it.

Since rolling out Reels, Instagram has made it a lot easier to find the feature on the bottom tab of your Home page. There should be a movie reel icon in the middle of the menu bar, where you can open Reels. (This is where the create post button used to be.) You can also find Instagram Reels by going to your Explore page, where IGTV and Shop also live. This is where you can discover Reels created by other Instagram users. If you see other people's Reels, the feature should be available to you as well. To see if you're able to create your own 15 or 30-second video, check by going to the create post icon in the upper righthand corner. The option to create a Reel should be third on the list of drop-downs.

If you don’t have a Reels icon in your bottom menu tab, you can’t post on Instagram Reels, or you can’t even see Instagram Reels in the app, it's possible that your phone or the Instagram app haven’t been updated in a while. You can update your phone by going into your phone's settings and seeing if there's an update available. Instagram can be updated via the App Store or Google Play Store. Just search for Instagram and hit "Update." Some other troubleshooting methods, as recommended by RepublicWorld, are to log out of your Instagram account and sign back in, or clear the cache of your Instagram account. And if all else fails, try restarting your phone.

How To Make An Instagram Reel

If you have Reels and are ready to start making your own content, you might be wondering how to make a Reel on Instagram. The feature (as you might have guessed) works a lot like TikTok, though, there are some differences. Swipe to your camera feature and click “Reels” on the bottom of your screen. There, you can choose a sound to shoot with by clicking the music symbol, change the length of your shooting time between 15 and 30 seconds, speed up or slow down your video, add effects, touch up your appearance, set a timer before shooting, and align your shots with each other. When previewing your Reel, you can also add music, a voiceover, and typical IG story features like stickers, drawing, and text.

Reels could be the biggest feature to hit the app since Instagram came out in October 2010. So, whether you’re eager to up your Instagram game by creating an Instagram Reel yourself, or just want some new content to scroll through, making sure your Instagram app is up to date is your best bet for getting your Reels rolling. Lights, camera, action!

Every day, a billion Instagram users post. If you don’t know how to navigate the content of a social network, you won’t be able to find interesting things and fill the feed with usefulness. Knowing how the search string works is also useful for those who are seriously engaged in promotion. Knowing what algorithms are in the social network, you can use them for a stable growth of statistics. Let's talk about finding videos on Instagram. nine0003

Content

  1. How to find a video on Instagram about a topic of interest
  2. How to find a video by name
  3. How to find a video that has been watched on Instagram
  4. How to find a video that has been liked

How to find a video of interest on 902 902 Although Instagram has a search bar, there are two ways to find videos: one is not very accurate, the second is very inaccurate. Let's talk about both.

  1. Search . Click on the magnifying glass icon in the bottom horizontal menu and use the line at the top of the screen. It works like some kind of Google, so you are familiar with the mechanism. nine0016
  2. Recommendation . Every post you like influences what the social network will recommend. Therefore, if the topic interests you not only today, most likely the necessary posts are just in the rivers. See what the resource offers, there is most likely something cool there.

How to search video by title

How to search Instagram video by title? Unfortunately or fortunately, when publishing, we do not add a name to the video. Moreover, the description is also not indexed, even if you enter keywords, the social network will not find anything. The only things that allow you to navigate through publications are the nickname, profile name, Bio and hashtags. It is by tags that we find what we are interested in. They are the best free way to promote. nine0003

How to find watched videos on Instagram

On YouTube, the main "supplier" of videos, there is a "History" section, which notes everything watched and what you "didn't finish". Insta, unfortunately, does not have such an option. How to find the video on Instagram that you watched? No way. The only way to leave a loophole to be able to open what we once stumbled upon is to mark posts with likes, because we can view what we like.

How to find videos liked by

Since the only way to open what has already been viewed is through "liked" posts, let's talk about how to find videos you like on Instagram. The algorithm of actions is as follows:

  1. Open the application and log in.
  2. Click on your profile picture in the lower right corner.
  3. Touching the three horizontal lines from the top right.
  4. Select the "Settings" item.
  5. Open the "Account" section.
  6. Select the "Publications you liked" button. nine0016

Video search on Instagram is a great way to follow interesting bloggers and fill your feed with quality content. Therefore, you must know all the nuances of this system. In addition, having an understanding of the algorithms of the social network, you can use them for more effective promotion.

#1 Is it possible to get only videos on Instagram upon request?

Unfortunately, there is no such sorting. But you, even without opening the post, can understand whether there is a photo or a video: there will be a triangle icon in the upper right corner of the video. nine0003

№2 How to find a song from an Instagram video?

This is not Tik Tok, so there is no easy solution to this question. You can ask in the comments or direct the author if the profile is small. If you do not want to wait for a response for a long time, use Shazam, this is a win-win option.

№3 How to search on IGTV?

Unfortunately, you can only search for authors in the IGTV section. So far, even hashtags do not work there. But IGTV is displayed in the account itself, so try using the usual search bar. nine0003

#4 Can someone see the Instagram posts I like?

The social network itself does not have this function, but you can use third-party services. For example, Instagram can track users. But, of course, it was not without limitations - the tool analyzes the pages of subscribers and subscriptions. So, if you like someone who is not on these lists, Instaspy will most likely not show them.

How to quickly find Instagram videos you've saved or liked

Instagram has released a new feature called Reels, which is very similar to TikTok. You can scroll through an endless feed of videos, discovering more content similar to what you liked or saved. Pretty soon, you'll have a long list of funny, weird, or useful videos saved somewhere in the app. How do you find those saved and liked Instagram videos when needed? There is also a subtle difference between them. nine0003

Instant Satisfaction



Just like it works and on Facebook where you can like something if you like it. Show appreciation for the work done by the creator. Saving is when you save a video for later use or viewing without the knowledge of the creator. Instagram makes it difficult to find saved and liked Instagram videos. You can use both or either of these depending on what you need from the reel in question. nine0003

Let's get started.

Find your liked/saved Instagram videos online

Step 1: Open Instagram in your favorite browser and log in with your Facebook login or credentials. Click on your profile picture in the upper right corner of the screen to select the "Saved" option.



Here you will find all your saved drums and other images that you may have also saved. There is no way to access them or save them separately in the web app. nine0003

It is also not possible to access the reels you like in the browser. Instagram was designed for mobile devices and most of the features are available on a smartphone. This is where people most often use Instagram.

Find liked/saved Instagram videos on Android

Instagram is much better when you use it on a smartphone.

Step 1: Click on your profile icon at the bottom of the screen and select the hamburger menu icon at the top right. You will see several options. Select Saved Here. nine0003



Step 2: Here you will find your saved Instagram videos. Notice the plus sign at the top? You can use it to create a new folder to house all the drums you have saved by category.





Please note that by default, videos are saved in the All Messages folder, where you will also find other saved images and videos. So, create a folder to clearly distinguish between videos and other saved posts. nine0003

Here are the steps to find your favorite videos on Instagram.

Step 1: Click on the menu icon on the Profile tab and this time select Settings.



Step 2: Click on accounts.



Step 3: Click Posts You Like.



This is where you will find all the drums you like.



You will also find all the other posts, images and videos you like. There is no way to create a folder and save likes separately. That's what the stored function is for. nine0003

Find Liked/Saved Instagram Videos on iOS

The steps of the iOS platform to find Instagram Likes and Saved Videos remain more or less the same. They are here.

Step 1: Click on the Profile tab at the bottom right corner of the screen and select the menu icon. You will notice a bunch of options. Click Saved.





Step 2: You will now view all your saved videos along with pictures and other messages in your All Messages folder. nine0003



Creating a new folder for selecting and storing drums is very easy. Just click on the "+" icon to start the process. You can name folders as you go along.

What about your favorite Instagram videos?

Step 1: Tap the menu icon on the Profile tab and select Settings from the pop-up window.





Step 2: Click Account and then Posts You Like. nine0003



Here you will find all the Instagram videos you liked, as well as all the other posts you also liked. Again, there is no way to create folders or filter them separately.
