Instagram Trial Reels

You can now fully control Instagram Trial Reels in Repurpose.

Instagram Trial Reels let you try content with non-followers first to see what performs best before sharing it with your audience.

• Choose whether to include, exclude, or only repurpose Trial Reels when repurposing your Instagram Reels to other platforms

• Publish videos as Trial Reels automatically via workflows or manually per post

• When publishing Trial Reels to Instagram, choose what happens after 72 hours — auto-publish to your feed if it performs well, or do nothing

Trial Reel publishing options are available at both the workflow level and individual post level, matching Instagram’s native behavior.
