It quickly became quite popular as many popular influencers switched to it, and since its release, Instagram has even tested ads between reels to take advantage of the content.

Now, the bug doesn’t seem to affect all Instagram users. However, as the number of tweets increases, it seems to affect many users.
At the time of this writing, there is no actual fix for this and the company has not addressed this issue. However, given Instagram’s focus on video sharing, the company can expect to fix this issue sooner rather than later, as the CEO confirmed.
