Instagram Introduces ‘Watch History’ to Let Users Revisit Watched Reels
Instagram: Instagram has launched a new Watch History feature, allowing users to rewatch previously viewed reels if they missed them. Learn how this feature works, how it's better than TikTok, and what new experiences users will gain.
It usually occurs that after we have seen a good reel, we are not able to locate it again. This is because we scroll through content quite fast on social media apps and our feeds keep changing. In such a case, the social media app Instagram has introduced a feature which all users have been waiting for. Now, users will be able to watch easily reels they earlier watched but did not save. This new feature, known as "Watch History," has been officially rolled out.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri said that this feature is specifically for users who are unable to find a reel later. He explained, “If you watched a Reel and can't find it later, you can now easily find it using the 'Watch History' feature. Simply go to your 'Profile' and open 'Settings', then go to 'Watch History' under 'Your Activity', and you'll find all the Reels you've watched.”
Open the Instagram app and go to your profile. Go to Settings, select 'Your Activity', and then click on 'Watch History'. You'll now see a list of all your viewed Reels. Users can filter Reels by date, week, or month. If you want to remove a video from your history, it can be deleted.
