Instagram is testing an exciting new feature: Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode for Reels. Meta is now allowing select users to continue watching their favorite Reels in a floating window, even after they exit the Instagram app. This means you can multitask on your device while keeping Reels playing in a small window – whether you’re replying to messages, browsing the web, or using other apps.
How Picture-in-Picture Mode Enhances Your Instagram Experience
With PiP mode, Instagram aims to make content consumption more flexible and user-friendly. Instead of being tied to the app, you can now keep enjoying short videos while doing other tasks. This feature is currently in a testing phase, so only a few users have access for now. However, if the feedback is positive, we can expect a broader rollout soon.
What This Means for Instagram Users
If you love binge-watching Reels or want to stay entertained while working on other things, this update could be a game-changer. Stay tuned for official announcements as Meta refines and expands this feature.
