Crop Instagram Reels to the perfect size with our online tool 

Want to create Instagram Reels that fit the platform perfectly? You’re in the right place! Our online video editor lets anyone create beautiful Reels without requiring any advanced video editing experience. Just upload your video, set the project size to Vertical, drag the video over and resize it by clicking and dragging. You can also take advantage of Flixier’s other editing features to cut out unwanted parts, trim your Reels, add motion titles, generate subtitles automatically and much more. And the best part is that you can do it all in your web browser! 

Crop Instagram Reels

Crop Reels down to the perfect size and length

Choose the Vertical preset in Flixier to get the perfect size for your Instagram Reels. It will set your project to a resolution of 1080 x 1920, meaning your videos will be displayed in full HD. You can also use the timeline to trim your video’s length down precisely and make sure it meets the Instagram maximum length criteria of 60 seconds. 

Ensure that your Reels are always well framed 

Toggle the ‘Safe Zone Overlays’ on to make sure that your Reels always look good. The overlay will show you which parts of the video will get covered up by interface elements like the Like, Comment, or Follow buttons, so you can reframe your video to make sure that everything important is still visible on the screen. 

Generate subtitles for Instagram Reels

Keep people watching on mute from swiping past your Reels! Flixier can analyze the spoken audio in your video and create accurate, fully synchronized subtitles that you can then edit, customize and even translate to different languages. Don’t neglect subtitles! Increase your engagement with a simple click!

Enhance your Reels with filters and color corrections

Make sure your Reels stand out from the crowd! Our simple Vibrance and Saturation sliders will ensure that your colors pop, while the Brightness and Sharpness settings can help fix a dark or blurry video. You can also use our color filters like Sepia or Technicolor to make sure that your Reels really reflect the mood you were trying to capture.

I’ve been looking for a solution like Flixier for years. Now that my virtual team and I can edit projects together on the cloud with Flixier, it tripled my company’s video output! Super easy to use and unbelievably quick exports.

My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.
