Instagram now lets creators link multiple reels in a series Aisha Malik AM PDT · August 21, 2025 Instagram has begun allowing creators to connect multiple reels in a series, the Meta-owned social network told TechCrunch exclusively. The new capability, which is already available on TikTok, makes it easier for viewers to follow and discover related content.

While the new feature isn’t a huge change, it’s a welcome addition for both creators and viewers as it makes it easier to find and follow along with content on the platform.
