    Instagram expands Reels duration to 90 seconds: Check other new features




    This is not the end, Instagram also said that users can now import their own audio directly within Instagram Reels.

    Digital Desk: In a bid to engage more with its audience,
    the photo-sharing platform Instagram has announced that the app is all set to
    introduce a few new features, including 90-second Reels.



    The platform
    owned by Meta informed its users that the platform is now extending the length
    of Reels up to 90 seconds, which will help users express their most authentic
    selves on Reels.



    "You
    will have more time to share more about yourself, film extra behind-the-scenes
    clips, dig deeper into the nuances of your content, or whatever else you want
    to do with that extra time," the company said in a blog post.



    This is not
    the end, Instagram also said that users can now import their own audio
    directly within Instagram Reels.



    "Use the
    import audio tool to add commentary or background noise from any video on your
    camera roll that is at least five seconds long," the company explained.



    "Make
    sure you like how your voice sounds in the recording because it may be used in
    other people's reels!" it continued.



    Notably, a
    new feature allows producers to poll their audience about what should happen in
    their next video, allowing them to help influence the storyline.



    Moreover, the platform released
    Templates which allows the users to quickly make a reel by using another one as
    a template. It preloads the audio and clip placeholders, leaving users with
    only the task of adding and trimming their own footage.



    The company went on to say, "We'll keep investing in
    innovative methods for you to engage your audience and amuse them on Reels. We
    can't wait to see what you come up with and how you put these new tools to
    creative use!"
