What is an Instagram Reel? A Reel is an Instagram feature that allows users to film or upload video clips for up to 60 seconds that they can edit, sound dub, or add effects to before sharing on the app. These short video clips let users publish creative content, showcase personality, market brands, or just have fun.

Instagram is a free photo and video sharing app available on iPhone and Android. People can upload photos or videos to our service and share them with their followers or with a select group of friends. They can also view, comment and like posts shared by their friends on Instagram.

An Instagram account with a verified badge next to its name now means that Instagram has confirmed that it is the authentic presence for that person or brand. Previously, the verified badge also required the person or brand to be notable and unique.

As Reels become increasingly important, marketers are asking themselves “How many Reels should I post in a day?” The industry standard is to post 4 to 7 Reels per week to increase your follower count as much as possible. There's room for variance though.
