How to Pause Instagram Reels: A Simple Guide
Learn how to easily pause Instagram Reels with this quick guide. Discover the simple trick to freeze your Reel videos and resume them at your convenience.
BollywoodFever: Instagram Reels have become one of the platform’s most popular features, allowing users to share short, engaging videos without cluttering their main feed. Similar to TikTok, Reels focus on vertical short-form videos and have attracted millions of users worldwide. But if you’ve ever tried to pause a Reel, you may have found that a simple tap on the screen doesn’t work as expected.
How to Pause Instagram Reels
Pausing a Reel on Instagram is slightly different from other video platforms. To pause a Reel, follow these steps:
- Press and hold your finger on the screen where the Reel is playing.
- The video will remain paused for as long as you hold your finger down.
- Once you lift your finger, the video will resume playing.
Unlike TikTok and other apps, a single tap on an Instagram Reel only mutes the audio, allowing you to scroll through comments without hearing the video on repeat. If you want to pause it fully, remember to keep your finger pressed down.
Whether you’re pausing to read comments or just want to take a break from the action, this method makes it easy to stop the video and resume whenever you’re ready.
