Recently, Mark Zuckerberg mentioned in an interview that users’ time on Reels on Instagram has grown exponentially by 24% overall, making the platform drive all their attention to the short videos’ user experience. Hence, Instagram has come out with tools to enhance the editing experience for content creators. The content creators can now easily edit their videos by splitting the clips, controlling the pace of the video and swap clips. Apart from that the platform has previously offered the feature of adding audio to the clip and including text and stickers.
In addition the platform is also exploring a better user experience for networking by adding the option of reacting to the posts with GIFs in the comment section. Furthermore, the platform has also been working on having the function of replying to a reel with a reel. Here’s how you can opt for this in less than 5 steps:

Moreover, the platform has been working on the Gifts feature for the reels where content creators can earn money from creating the videos. This is to be launched soon, probably in a few weeks to come. The idea is to create a space where viewers can send in their regards for their favourite creators by sending them virtual gifts. In a nutshell, you purchase stars and send them to the creators which will help them earn money from their reels.
