This is a reel-y big announcement - Our UGC platform now supports Instagram Reels!
As of today, Instagram Reels will automatically be collected via all Instagram collection methods: Mention, Hashtag, User Handle, Photo Tag, and Creators. If you have Instagram Collection configured, Reels will automatically & retroactively (where available) populate in your albums, so no additional setup is needed. You’ve probably collected a bunch of Reels into your albums already!
Reels content currently shows up in the platform as an Instagram video and is fully supported by our permissioning, publishing & tagging functionality.
In the future, we will be working on adding full support for Reels, including analytics, scheduling, and tools to make Reels more discoverable within our UI.
What can I currently do with Instagram Reels:
-
Collect Reels via all Instagram collection methods: Mention, Hashtag, User Handle, Photo Tag, and Creators.
-
Publish Reels to all of my web galleries.
-
Permission Reel content via commenting & the Pixlee assistant.

We can’t wait to see all of the reel-y awesome content that this upgrade will bring to your UGC marketing.
