Creators can build an audience with Reels in different ways across Facebook. People can discover reels based on their interests and what’s popular both at the top of News Feed alongside Stories and Rooms and in a new, dedicated News Feed section.

Creators and group members can create and share reels in Groups. For admins, a new ‘Single Theme’ group setting makes it easy to prompt members to share their reels.
