Reels, the TikTok-copycat feature was initially launched on Instagram. Reels offer a smart and quick way to create short-form video content that is fun and visually entertaining.
Due to TikTok’s ban in India, Instagram Reels has seen massive growth, especially in India. Perhaps, that’s why Facebook introduced Reels on its own platform first in India back in March this year.
Besides, creators now have the option to recommend Instagram Reels on Facebook to expand their reach. Interestingly, Facebook is now launching Reels to all users in the US, on both iOS and Android.
Similar to Instagram, Reels on Facebook allow people to follow the creator, like, comment, share, and save a reel. The Save feature lets you save your favorite reels so you can easily watch them later.
That said, the procedure to find reels you liked and saved on Facebook is entirely different than that on Instagram. That’s certainly because both apps have an entirely different user interface.
Perhaps, if you’re new to Facebook Reels then you might find it difficult to see your saved reels. To help you, below are two ways that you can use to find saved reels on Facebook.
How to find your Saved reels on Facebook
- Make sure you are running the latest version of Facebook.
- Go to the Menu tab in the Facebook app and tap the “Reels” shortcut.
- Tap your Facebook profile picture in the upper-right corner.
- On the reels page, tap the “View saved” button.
- Tap the “Saved reels” tab to view all your saved Facebook reels.
That’s it. You can also view your Saved audio and Saved effects in the Saved section.

Though you can’t post reels from Facebook’s website, you can however find your saved Facebook reels on a computer. To do so,

These options are not available on my Facebook account. I am using a Pixel 3 and my app is up to date. There are no saved reels and I’ve saved so many. Do you have a remedy?
My likes and reactions do not have reels I’ve “liked” included… only my friends posts that I reacted to are showing up. Please tell me how can I find a reel I “liked”/hearted just last night? I’m using the fb app on my iPhone.
Thank you!
can you help with finding my reels from the business account instead of my personal?
Thank you so much! I’d been trying to find my “Liked ” reels. I kept getting instructions on how to find Saved reels. I’d have never figured out I could find it under “Manage you tags”
By the way, I’m using the FB app on my Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus
