Lahore, April 10: Instagram is shaking things up with an exciting new feature that locks Reels behind secret codes, offering a thrilling experience for both creators and followers.
This new tool allows creators to post clues or hints that viewers must solve to unlock the content, making it exclusive to those who are tuned into the creator’s unique preferences or interests.
Imagine a scenario where a creator posts a Reel with a hint like “Guess my favorite city,” and only followers who know the creator’s past content or personal references can crack the code.
New Twist on Instagram
This exciting twist on traditional Reels gives fans a sense of exclusivity and a fun challenge to access special content.
The feature draws from Instagram’s earlier tools, like the “Reveal” Stories, which let creators share hidden content with specific followers. With Reels now part of this feature, the possibilities for engagement have expanded.
Whether you’re a brand looking to build anticipation around a product launch or a creator wanting to add an element of surprise for your loyal followers, this feature opens new doors for creativity and interaction.

Currently, the feature is being tested, and it’s not yet clear when it will be available to all users. However, if the testing phase goes well, it could soon roll out to the broader Instagram community, changing the way we interact with content on the platform.
