Instagram users can now create 2022 recap reel

Instagram releases new 2022 recap Reels feature to customise and share with friends and family


Tech Desk December 20, 2022

Instagram has introduced an in-app feature that will allow users to create an end-of-the-year reel that can be shared. A new Reels feature will create a recap of 2022 which can be shared with friends and family on the platform.

The Reels can be customised while choosing a narrated template from Bad Bunny, DJ Khaled, Badshah or Stranger Things star, Priah Ferguson.

Recap can include up to 14 photos to share, which will automatically be edited into a Reel to be shared with followers.

According to the company, users will be able to see a “create your 2022 recap reel” prompt on the homepage, which will guide them to create their own template.

Previously, Instagram users created their own year-end throwbacks with their picture collages in a photo grid. Last year, the platform allowed users to select up to 10 stories from the year to share with their followers.

The launch comes as end-of-the-year recaps become popular with other platforms after being started with Spotify Wrapped.
