Instagram has also started showing ads in the format of the reels. The picture-sharing platform will be showing advertisements within 'Reels' feature. A report by Mashable claims that advertisements in Instagram Reels can be as long as 30 seconds in length and will have a similar vertical and full-screen design as regular uploads on 'Reels'. However, unlike the Instagram Story advertisements, the ads in Instagram Reels can be commented on, liked, saved and also shared. The report on additional methods for advertisements in Facebook also comes as Apple is set to carry out a component that would limit the reach of targeted ads, reported Mashable.
