Caption Best Practices for Instagram Reels

  • Keep captions in the safe zone (center 80%) to avoid UI crop
  • Use stylized fonts to match your brand aesthetic
  • Word-by-word animations increase watch time on Reels
  • Avoid placing text below the 85% vertical mark (covered by like/comment buttons)
