You no longer need to dive into Reels to create TikTok style videos on Instagram. Instagram has expanded the remix feature to allow you to collaborate and similar rework from any video on the platform. You can select “remix this video” from the three-dot menu to compose your response to a clip. You’ll need to share the result via Reels, but the same editing tools will be available for creating collaborations, voiceovers, and effects.
Instagram is also doing more to attract live streamers. You can now feature your next Instagram live stream on your profile. Thus, an easy way to set a reminder is provided to the audience. Nor will you need to add a regular broadcast post to the scheduled post. While you can’t show previews of later releases, it can help build excitement for an interview or ‘ask me anything’ sessions.
The extended remix feature could be important to the platform. Instagram does not hesitate to be a competitor of TikTok, and the Duet feature stands out as an important factor in the success of this competitor. The option to remix any video could potentially offer Instagram users a larger pool of videos than the options in TikTok, as unscheduled footage will be included for this short format. . .
