How to Post a Trial Reel on Instagram

Instagram’s Trial Reels are a useful option if you want to test a new Reel before sharing it with your followers. The Reel is first shown to people who don’t follow you, giving you a chance to see how it performs.

Here’s how to post one:

  1. Open Instagram and tap the + button.
  2. Choose Reel and record a video or upload one from your device.
  3. Edit the Reel and tap Next.
  4. On the sharing screen, find the Trial option and turn it on.
  5. Review your Reel and tap Share.

Your Reel will now be shared as a Trial Reel and initially shown to non-followers. After seeing how it performs, you can decide whether you want to share it with your followers.

Save a Trial Reel You Like

If you come across a Trial Reel that you want to keep, it’s a good idea to save it while you can. You may not be able to find the same Reel again later on the page where you originally saw it. In that situation, LinkDownloader can help you download the Reel and keep it for later.
