Instagram tests Reels pause feature as TikTok remains in limbo


Meta is testing a pause feature with a small group of users on Instagram Reels.

Meta is also paying creators to promote Instagram on TikTok, Snapchat, YouTube Shorts and other short-form video platforms, CNBC reported Sunday. Shares of Meta are up slightly on Thursday, a day after the company reported fourth-quarter earnings that beat analysts' estimates on the top and bottom lines. "We're going to learn what's going to happen with TikTok, and regardless of that, I expect Reels on Instagram and Facebook to continue growing," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on a call with analysts Wednesday.
