Reels are a feature on Instagram that allows users to create short, entertaining videos set to music. Reel Templates are pre-designed layouts that users can use to create their Reels videos more easily and quickly. The only problem is that Reel Templates can only be accessed from a precise location and not all Reel creation areas so Here's a quick guide on how to use Reels Templates in Instagram.

Ever since Instagram realised it needed to compete with TikTok’s short-form video content, Reels have been pushed harder than ever. We’ve reached a point where traditional content and images that used to be popular on Instagram are almost non-existent. As part of Instagram’s heavy focus on Reels, they have recently added a brand new feature called Reel Templates which helps make creating Reels easier than ever.
Although a lot of people are already using Reels as a primary content creation tool, most aren’t using Reel Templates which is interesting because Reel Templates can potentially help increase the number of views on your Reels videos. Here are a few reasons why:
- Reel Templates provide a visually appealing and professional-looking layout for your videos. This can make your Reels more attractive and engaging to viewers, which may encourage them to watch your Reels more often.
- Reel Templates can help you create consistent, cohesive content that follows a specific theme or concept. This can make your Reels more cohesive and easier to follow, which may help to build a loyal audience.
- Reel Templates can save you time and effort when creating your Reels, which means you can create more content more frequently. This can help you to reach a wider audience and potentially increase your views.
However, it's important to note that using Reels templates alone is not a guarantee of increased views. There are many factors that can affect the success of your Reels, including the quality of your content, your use of hashtags and tagging, and your overall engagement with your audience. To maximize your views, it's important to focus on creating high-quality, engaging content and interacting with your followers regularly.
Where do your find Reel Templates on Instagram? And how do you use Reel Templates on Instagram?
To begin, you first need to make sure that you are using the latest version of Instagram.
- Now open the Instagram app and tap your Profile icon in the bottom right-hand corner. This will take you to your profile.
- Next tap the + (create icon) in the top right-hand corner. This will open a selection of content you can create.
- Here select Reel from the list the swipe across to Template at the bottom of the screen.
- Finally, select one of the templates on offer (they change quite often) then add your content and customise it as you please. Once you have done that you can post it as you normally would any other content.
While using Reel Templates can potentially help increase the number of views on your Reels videos, it's important to keep in mind that they are just one aspect of a successful Reels strategy. In addition to using templates, it's important to focus on creating high-quality, engaging content and interacting with your followers regularly in order to maximize your views. This includes using relevant hashtags, tagging other users and brands, and engaging with comments and messages from your audience. By putting in the effort to create and promote your Reels, you can increase your chances of success on the platform and reach a wider audience.
