Can You See Who Watched Your Instagram Reels?
|
February 23rd, 2024 by Terri Pinyerd

Unfortunately, there is no way to see which specific Instagram users watched your Instagram Reel.

 

However, you can view other information from your Reels Insights or general Instagram Insights.

 

To do this, you'll first need to switch your personal account to a business or creator account.

 

How To Access Instagram Reel Insights

 

NOTE: Instagram Reel insights are only available via the mobile app

 

You can't view these Insights without creating Reels, so you'll first need to create Reels before Reel Insights are available on your Instagram account.

 

Once you create content, you'll be able to access insights for individual Reels or all your Reels. Here's how...

 

Insights For Individual Reels

 

To see insights on a specific Reel, tap the Reels tab on your profile page to view all Reels posted.

Which Metrics Are Available For Reels?

 

You can view the following metric Insights for Reels:

 

  • Total plays (Reel view count)

  • Initial plays

  • Replays

  • Likes

  • Comments

  • Shares

  • Saves

  • How many accounts reached

  • Reel interactions

  • Profile activity (follows)

  • Reach

  • Watch time

  • Average watch time

 

You will also be able to view any monetization or ad information regarding the Reel.

 

Are There Any Third Party Apps For IG Insights?

 

While there are many third party apps that may promise to give you more in depth information on the Instagram algorithm, there is no way to determine who specifically has watched your Reel.

 

This information is not provided by Instagram, regardless of whether or not the user has a public Instagram account.

 

Use caution when downloading and allowing access to third party apps, as many may be unsafe and can go against Instagram's terms of service.
