About Facebook Reels
You can schedule Reels to your Facebook Page profiles automatically. Reels can significantly increase your engagement on their platform.
Quick Facts
- Allowed file extensions: .mp4 and .mov
- The Reel should be between 4 and 60 seconds long
- Resolution: 540 x 960 (540p) minimum
- Allowed aspect ratio: 9:16
- Directly published Reels can only use original audio due to API restrictions
- Facebook Reels let you add clickable URLs in the captions
Important: Videos in .mov format might fail to post in some instances and can be less consistent than .mp4 videos, but we are looking to address this.
Caution: Reels can only be shared as 'Public'. This means that anyone on and off Facebook will be able to see your Reels.
Note: Selecting a different thumbnail is not currently supported due to API (how third-party platforms like Sendible integrate to social sites) restrictions
