Reels’ inclusion in Instagram makes the UI confusing for me. Right now it only feeds me three or four videos that are peppered in my discover feed when I scroll down so I have to swipe up to refresh for more videos:

Why not have a separate section dedicated to Reels content instead of having it interspersed with photos and regular video posts?
- bigpumpkin 6y agoYeah, I was trying it out too and found it confusing as well. I think they are trying to make old users suddenly discover reels while flipping through photos, but it feels very messy.
- reggieband 6y agoI took me doing a Google search to find the original Instagram PR release that had instructions on where even to find Reels. But once you are in any Reel it acts just like TikTok, you swipe up for a never-ending feed of content. So in a sense, any Reel is a portal into "a separate section dedicated to Reels content".
