Instagram has launched a new Reels update that includes a new feature called Remix. The feature is nearly similar to TikTok’s Duet feature, allowing users to make a Reel next to an existing Reel.
How can we access Remix feature on Reels?
Simply navigate to the Reel you want to Remix, then click the three dot menu and choose “Remix this Reel.” From here, you can either record your Reel live or choose a previously recorded video. There are also audio control tools for your clip and the remixed clip, as well as other editing functions.
Point To Note:
By default, any new Reel you make will be able to be “Remixed.” For older Reels, the person who made them must click “Enable Remixing” in the three-dot menu. Instagram also lets users turn off Remixing for all reels from their account settings page.
People already thought of Reels as a copy of TikTok because it had a similar layout and let users share short videos they had made. Recently, the company has paid a lot of attention to reels. For example, the app now has its own tab on the home screen. As a way to get their own content out there, they’ve downplayed content that was taken from other sites like TikTok, Moj, etc.
