SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Instagram announces a significant update. Users can now share their Instagram Reels directly to their personal Facebook feeds. This change simplifies content sharing across Meta’s platforms.

The process is straightforward. After creating a Reel on Instagram, users tap the share button. They select “Facebook Feed” as the destination. The Reel posts directly to their Facebook profile. Friends and followers see it immediately.
This integration offers clear advantages. Content creators save valuable time. They reach audiences on both Instagram and Facebook faster. It expands visibility without extra effort. Businesses and individuals benefit equally.
The update supports Meta’s strategy. It connects the user experiences of Instagram and Facebook more tightly. Sharing content between the apps becomes seamless. This encourages users to stay within the Meta ecosystem.
Viewers on Facebook see the Reel just like other feed posts. They can watch, like, comment, and share it directly. The Reel carries over with its original caption and audio. It links back to the creator’s Instagram profile.
This feature is available globally. It works for both public and private Instagram accounts. Users control sharing settings individually per Reel. They choose whether to post to Facebook each time.
The move responds to creator feedback. Many requested easier ways to share Reels beyond Instagram. This direct sharing method meets that need. It makes cross-platform promotion effortless.
