Instagram has now introduced a new feature that allows s to Reels shared by public s. The announcement regarding the feature was made by Instagram head Adam Mosseri in his Instagram broadcast channel. The feature is currently rolling out to s based in the US only. Until now, Instagram allowed s to directly share the reels on public s in their Stories or via chat. The app also lets s save Reels, which appear in the saved Reels tabs. However, with the new feature, s will now be able to share the ed Reels via other platforms like WhatsApp and more.

Adam Mosseri, in his Instagram broadcast channel, shared that Instagram s in the US will now be able to Reels to their camera roll. s can simply tap on the share icon and then select the option to save the reel on their phones. However, the Reels can only be ed if they have been shared from public s. The Reels shared by private s cannot be ed. Also, s with public s can turn off the ability to Reels for others in the app settings.

Mosseri also shared a picture showcasing a option available at the bottom menu along with Add to Story, Share, Copy Link, and other options. The picture also suggests that the ed Reels will get an Instagram logo along with the name.

How to Create Instagram Broadcast Channel on Android, iOS Device

There are no details available on the availability of features in other regions. However, Instagram s can their own Reels from their drafts without a watermark. Also, they can share the reels in their Stories or via Instagram chat or copy links to send it to others via other social media apps including WhatsApp. However, with the Instagram Reels being saved to camera rolls, s could share the Reels in WhatsApp and other social media apps as well without the need of copying the link.

Earlier this month, Instagram was reported to be working on a chatbot feature based on artificial intelligence (AI). It is said to allow s to engage with AI Agents that can respond to queries, provide advice, and compose messages.
