How To Use Remix Reel Feature On Instagram

Are There Any Prerequisites For Making Instagram Remix Reels?

The feature can be applied only to those reels that were created after this feature was rolled out. So, in case you tap on an older reel i.e. a reel that was created before the Remix Reels feature was released, you will not find the Remix This Reel feature.

Where Can Instagram Duet Reels Feature Be Used?

Creators can use the remix feature on Instagram reels to do various things such as –
