A minor Reels replace, which brings it extra into line with TikTok.
This week, Instagram’s added a brand new “Following” feed within the Reels tab, which allows you to solely see Reels from accounts that you just comply with within the app.
Up until now, Instagram has solely supplied a single Reels feed, which shows a mixture of posts from accounts that you just comply with in addition to beneficial clips. However now, like TikTok’s “For You” and “Following” streams, you possibly can select to solely see the newest movies from the accounts you select.
Which might be not going to be overly useful on Instagram, as a result of most customers are following a spread of accounts within the app, they usually could not essentially wish to see their Reels as a lot as they’re enthusiastic about their common posts and Tales.
I’d hazard a guess that most individuals comply with completely different accounts on TikTok than they do on Instagram (in the event that they comply with TikTok accounts in any respect), which, by extension, might additionally imply that your Reels “Following” feed isn’t as entertaining as the primary show.
However good to have the choice anyway, I suppose, for those who do favor to see solely clips from the accounts that you just select.
You possibly can swap your Reels tab to “Following” by tapping on the “Reels” title within the higher left nook of the display screen, then selecting “Following” from the dropdown menu. You possibly can simply swap again to the primary Reels feed by tapping the again arrow on the prime left of display screen.
