Instagram created the 15-60 seconds short videos this year, and they turned out to be a great success.

Reels is currently being used by an enormous percent of users on a daily basis, and since Reels are quite similar to TikTok’s videos, some users are even leaving the TikTok platform, since Instagram made it possible to scroll down endlessly through the videos.

However, as with all other types of posts on Instagram - photos, regular videos, stories, the platform does not have a ‘Download’ button.

Since Reels videos can be cooking recipes or something you want to have downloaded for future reference, it truly is needed to have a downloading option.
