Free Instagram Reel maker

Make Instagram Reels from any long video

Turn boring vertical-averse footage into scroll-stopping Reels. 9:16 crop, safe zones, captions and text overlays — all free and private in your browser.

How it works

Step 1

Choose your footage

Pick any video from your device. It never gets uploaded — everything renders locally in your browser.

Step 2

Crop to 9:16

Crop and frame your clip for vertical Reels with adjustable focus, safe-zone guides, and text overlays.

Step 3

Post your Reel

Export a platform-ready vertical video with captions, text and music — then publish straight to Instagram.

What you get

  • Instagram Reels 9:16 preset
  • Auto-detect the best clips
  • Adjustable vertical crop with safe zones
  • Subtitles from .srt or pasted text, with one-click looks
  • Text overlays, fonts, colors and outline
  • Add your own music or adjust clip audio
  • Free — no upload, no account required

Questions

Do I need an Instagram account to use the tool?

No. The tool just exports the video file — you can post it to Instagram (or anywhere) yourself.

What size should an Instagram Reel be?

Instagram Reels are 1080x1920 (9:16). The Reel preset handles the vertical crop for you and shows safe-zone overlays so text stays clear of the interface.

Can I reuse one video for many Reels?

Yes — that's the idea. A single long video can produce many clips. Use auto-detect to find multiple moments and export them all at once.

Does it work with phone videos?

Yes. If it plays in your browser, you can make a Reel from it. On phones the tool switches to a preview-quality mode so it runs smoothly.

Ready to make your clips?

Free in your browser. Your video never leaves your device, and you don't need an account to get started.
