Instagram Reels audio name ideas

What should you name your audio?

Here are 3 ideas:

1. Use your brand name

This is recommended if you have a business or brand.

For example, Preview is our brand. So here are name ideas, depending on what the video is about:

2. Name a trend

Have you created a new trend? Or are you posting a new audio trend from TikTok? Give a name to the trend. It will make it easier for people to find the audio. For example: When you realize…, Get to know me, When people ask me why…. Or it can be the song title with a twist.

3. Use words from the lyrics or audio

What if you schedule your Instagram Reels with Preview?

You can still change the name of your audio if you schedule your Instagram Reels with Preview.

Plan your Reels in Preview as usual.

When it’s time to post, just give a name to your audio before you post.

That’s it!

Have fun changing the name of your Instagram Reels audio!
