In this section, we\u2019ll explore some of the top fixes that you can tackle to fix the problem. Most of these steps take just a few minutes, and you may need to try them all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Restart_Your_Mobile_Device\"><\/span>1.

Restarting a mobile device also improves performance, so it will work faster.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if the problem persists after restarting your device, then you should continue with the next few steps. These might provide the solution you need to ensure that your <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-make-reels-on-instagram-and-share-your-best-work\">Instagram Reels<\/a> function properly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Reinstall_Your_Instagram_App\"><\/span>2. Reinstall Your Instagram App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have a problem with the installation of your Instagram app. Therefore, the best thing to do is to uninstall the app and then reinstall it. You can do this on your App Store or Google Play marketplace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This process shouldn&#8217;t take more than a few minutes of your time and can fix a bunch of issues. Therefore, by reinstalling your Instagram app, you can fix a wide range of issues in a single move.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Update_Your_Instagram_App\"><\/span>3. Update Your Instagram App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An out-of-date Instagram app can cause something like Reels to not work correctly. Therefore, <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-update-instagram-to-boost-performance\">you need to update the app<\/a>, which you can do on the app download page. You should see an option to update the app if it&#8217;s available.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you can turn on automatic app <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-update-instagram-messenger-amp-get-all-the-new-features\">updates for Instagram<\/a> to avoid this issue repeating in the future. This is ideal if you have a lot of apps on your mobile device and want to stay on top of the updates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Update_Your_Operating_System\"><\/span>4. Update Your Operating System<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your OS may need to update to the latest version, and that\u2019s what is causing the glitch. Therefore, go to the settings of your device and inspect scheduled updates. You may want to apply the update immediately to see if your Instagram app is working correctly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After clicking the update button, your mobile device may restart, and this will also help with fixing the problem. Updating your OS is also important for ensuring security loopholes are fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Instagram Reels Not Working: Top Fixes To Try, image \u21162\" class=\"wp-image-3449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash-24x18.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash-36x27.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/alexander-shatov-_tF3vug2FhQ-unsplash-48x36.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Does_Instagram_Reels_Keep_Restarting\"><\/span>Why Does Instagram Reels Keep Restarting?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have a problem where Instagram Reels keeps restarting because there is a glitch or a connection issue. You\u2019ll need to follow the troubleshooting steps in the section above to try to remedy the problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you try a few of the fixes, load up the Reels content to see if there is an improvement. Sometimes, Reels restart randomly, and it&#8217;s just an error that you cannot fix. However, for most Instagram users, this problem doesn&#8217;t occur often.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_the_Instagram_Reels_Freeze\"><\/span>Why Do the Instagram Reels Freeze?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram Reels can freeze when there\u2019s a connection issue. That\u2019s because the bandwidth required to load the next few frames isn&#8217;t high enough. Therefore, you need to check your internet connection to ensure there\u2019s no problem. Here are some of the top things you can do to improve your internet connection:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Avoid public WiFi<\/strong>: If you have data on your mobile device for cheap, then it\u2019s a better option than using public WiFi. That\u2019s because public WiFi slows down when too many people are connected.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Restart the router<\/strong>: Restarting your router fixes a lot of internet-related problems. Simply turn off the power and then turn it back on after a few minutes. The entire process shouldn\u2019t take more than 5 minutes. This may also increase your internet speed, so it\u2019s a step that\u2019s worth taking.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check who\u2019s using the internet<\/strong>: You may have someone on your WiFi network at home who\u2019s downloading a lot of data. This can cause videos to freeze and buffer for a long duration.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Instagram Reels Not Working: Top Fixes To Try, image \u21163\" class=\"wp-image-3454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1-24x16.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1-36x24.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/souvik-banerjee-E6Yg8ACZ2vw-unsplash-1-1-48x32.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_Instagram_Reels_Disappear\"><\/span>Do Instagram Reels Disappear?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram Reels don\u2019t disappear like <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-story-template-presets-do-the-work-for-you\">Stories content<\/a> within 24 hours of publishing. However, you can archive IG Reels if you wish to not make them public anymore.

Consider completing the steps outlined toward the start of this article. That includes restarting your mobile device, reinstalling the app, and adding any updates. This should fix the majority of the issues.&nbsp;Or, if <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-music-not-working-heres-what-to-do\">Instagram music is not working<\/a>, try updating the app or clearing its cache to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that some IG Reels don\u2019t have any audio to begin with. Therefore, it might be the case that there\u2019s no fix that you can apply to solve the problem. With so many Reels out there, you can move on to the next one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, when creating IG Reels, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/add-music-to-instagram-to-capture-your-audiences-attention\">take advantage of the music<\/a> library. This feature ensures you don\u2019t have to worry about copyright laws. However, the music may have been deleted when the feature isn\u2019t working correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Instagram Reels Not Working: Top Fixes To Try, image \u21164\" class=\"wp-image-3721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash-24x14.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash-36x20.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/laura-chouette-IbsP3KmoWa4-unsplash-48x27.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_the_Instagram_Reels_Bonus_Not_Working\"><\/span>Why Is the Instagram Reels Bonus Not Working?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Instagram Rees Bonus not working error might be due to it not being available in your country. The bonuses feature is a way to <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-get-paid-for-reels-and-monetize-creative-content\">get paid for creating Insta Reels<\/a>. It\u2019s only available to professional accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, you need to meet a number of rules to be eligible for receiving bonuses on Insta Reels. You can look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/help.instagram.com\/383069119533156?helpref=hc_fnav\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram Creator Incentive Terms<\/a> for more details. Here are the top ones you should know about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Branded content<\/strong>: You cannot use <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-branded-content-tool-show-off-your-collaboration\">branded content<\/a> and use the bonus feature at the same time. Therefore, you need to remove the branded content if you want to get paid for the content from Instagram.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eligibility can expire<\/strong>: Access can expire after you receive confirmation of being added to the bonus program. This means that it\u2019s important to check if you get a message that indicates you are no longer eligible.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Everyone has different terms<\/strong>: The terms of your participation in the bonus program will differ from other users. Therefore, you need to inspect your terms, but there&#8217;s no way to change them for yourself.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After meeting the requirements for the bonuses, you will receive the payout. You can also look at your progress toward the bonus on the relevant page. You will typically receive payment for bonuses the following month. Therefore, familiarize yourself with the bonus payout schedule to set the right expectations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Instagram_Reels_Button_Missing_How_To_Fix_the_Problem\"><\/span>Instagram Reels Button Missing: How To Fix the Problem<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/hashtags-for-instagram-reels-still-work-this-is-how\">Instagram Reels<\/a> button missing issues can appear when you least expect it. This is frustrating and means you cannot create new Reel content. You can start by reloading the app, restarting your mobile device, and reinstalling the app. The majority of problems are solved by taking these steps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you still having trouble after applying these fixes? Then, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-contact-instagram-support-to-get-the-right-help\">contact Instagram customer support<\/a>.
