Is A Standalone Reels App On The Way?

Instagram may be exploring a separate app for Reels, making it a more direct TikTok competitor with a full-screen, scrolling video feed.

With Reels now up to 3 minutes long, there could be enough content to justify a separate app for Reels. It’s still unclear whether this move will attract new users to the app, or simply cannibalise from existing Instagram users.
