It’s no secret that Instagram has been adding and changing it’s features over the past 12 months. From guides, to reels, to helping creators it’s been quite a ride lately using the app.   Here is just another change coming to the app:

Instagram will give users control over how much sensitive content they will see under its “Explore” tab.

The Explore tab displays popular photos, locations and searches based on the user’s interests and allows them to pick from categories such as food, art and travel, among others. The new feature, called “Sensitive Content Control”, will allow users to decide if they want to see more or less of some types of sensitive content that do not necessarily break its rules, such as posts that may be sexually suggestive or violent.

First to answer the question I get asked: How many views is viral on reels?
ANSWER:
You post a reel that reaches 10,000 people and has over 10,000 plays–that reel has gone viral for you.
Question: How can I use reels for my business?
ANSWER:
Reels gives you access to a range of new video features including editing tools, timer, speed controls, AR effects, countdown and a new align tool. You can create a Reels video using multiple clips and then add original audio or music from their massive library. Reels will make it easier for your content to reach new audiences and even be discovered on a global stage. And the BEST part is that you don’t even need to be in front of the camera to go viral or even have people watch your videos.  ( Here’s a link to a reel I created that went viral:CLICK HERE To watch it)
If you study HOW others are doing reels and then put your OWN spin on it, you may indeed have something unique.
