Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri shared some exciting news on Wednesday that now anyone in the world can download public roles to their device. Previously, you could only save Reels in the Instagram app for later viewing.

Here’s the key: When you download a video, it comes with an Instagram watermark that contains your account name similar to what you see on TikTok. To access the video, tap the Share button and select Download. Simple, right? But there are more. If you are an account holder and want to keep your special role, you have the option to disable the download feature. Go to Settings, then Privacy and look for Rails and Remix. Here you will see a toggle to “Allow people to download your roles”. Your requests, your rules. A note about sound: If you download a movie that uses licensed sound, the downloaded video will have no sound. But don’t be afraid! For reels containing the original audio track, every fragment of the downloaded clip remains intact. This fantastic feature first became available to people in the United States in June. Guess what? Now the rest of the world can join the party. Instagram makes it easy to enjoy and share your favorite videos from anywhere!

In 2021, Instagram decided to stop offering videos with the TikTok watermark. Then, in August 2022, YouTube jumped on the watermark bandwagon by adding a logo-based markup to its downloaded Shorts video products. Preventing cross-platform sharing is part of the game. Is there! Instagram Reels takes the game to the next level and makes it more accessible to users around the world. Enjoy downloading reels!
