IG reels with better quality?

Are you uploading them from an android? Try uploading them from an iPhone or even better a laptop or a PC because iPhones are optimized for instagram and PCs are not prone to compression issues. In short android devices are worse for instagram.

I was using an Apple device for sure (@xReminisce can vouch for that) but it was interesting to know that there’s no compression issue on a PC. I will have to try that out too.

@Followlix mentioned that the resolution -> compression might have been an issue and I feel it has gotten better once I started filming from within the app but I’m willing to try uploading via a computer too.

Cheers gents.

Even i have noticed this and had made a thread about it long back that time also, people said to use iPhones.

I would love to know the difference between PC posting and phone.

How are you going to upload reel from PC?

The content looks great when they’re filmed but the moment I try to preview the reel or after it’s uploaded, the quality goes down a lot and I’m left with something that looks as if it’s been filmed using a potato. Any tips on how to upload better quality reels? It’s not impossible as I’ve seen reels that look fantastic.

If there’s something I need to be doing in pre, let me know that as well.

I also have the “allow higher quality uploads” turned on so that’s not the issue.

Cheers.
