How to See Saved Reels

Everyone can create and share Instagram Reels, which are short 60-second videos. But, unlike photos, you cannot directly save reels to different collections with the Save button. So, go to the "All Posts" album to see all your saved reels on Instagram. In the Instagram app, tap the Profile icon at the bottom of the Instagram screen. Select Menu on the top right (the hamburger icon with the three horizontal bars). Select Saved on the slide menu to go to the screen with your saved collections and the All Posts album. Open the All Posts album which has all your saved posts. Select the thumbnail which has a clapperboard icon to open the reel. Alternatively, select the middle tab on top with the clapperboard icon to filter all reels on the same screen. You can also open a collection and filter reels with the clapperboard icon on top of the screen.

Tip:

Videos are longer than the 60-second reels and can be distinguished from Reels with the Play icon. Instagram photos don't have any identifying icons.
