Instagram Rolls Out 2x Speed Feature for Reels
Instagram has rolled out a highly requested feature that allows users to watch Reels at 2x speed. This new feature gives users more control over their Reels experience as they connect with friends over content they love and enjoy. To watch a Reel at double pace, viewers can long-press on the right or left edge of the screen during playback. The video will then play at 2x speed until released. This new feature comes as Instagram continues to adapt to the fast-paced media landscape and changing user preferences.
