Instagram has taken huge inspiration from rival TikTok to build a new format called Reels.

Reels allows you to create 15-second video clips set to music and share them as Stories, similar to how TikTok works, TechCrunch reports.

Users can choose to share Reels to a Close Friends group or through Direct Message. The new format is currently available in Brazil on both iOS and Android. (ANI)
