Bug blocked Reels users from sharing videos on other platforms: Instagram

Meta-owned Instagram has clarified that it is not blocking creators from sharing their Reels videos on other short-form platforms like TikTok.

According to earlier reports, when trying to download an edited clip to an iPhone in Instagram Reels, the audio from the clip just disappeared.

“It means if you want to export the footage from Reels to use in another app (like TikTok), you have to actually post the Reel first in order to save the sound,” The Verge reported this week.
