How to View Your Liked Reels and Videos on Instagram; 2025 Latest Method

If you liked a lot of content, this list can become long. Instagram allows selecting multiple posts and un-liking in bulk.

How to View Your Liked Reels and Videos on Instagram: Ever scroll through your feed, double-tap on a video that caught your eye and then later: “Where did that go?” Whether it was a travel clip, a funny Reel, a cooking hack or just something you want to revisit, knowing how to find those liked videos is handy. Also, sometimes you might want to clean up your likes (for example if you accidentally “liked” something) or simply revisit a cool piece of content.

How to View Your Liked Reels and Videos on Instagram: The official method

According to Instagram’s Help Centre you can view recent photos and videos you’ve liked.

Here’s the official path:

1. Open Instagram, go to your profile.

2. Tap the “hamburger” menu (three lines) in the top-right corner.

3. Tap Your activity.

4. Under Interactions, tap Likes.

5. You’ll see posts (photos & videos) that you’ve liked. Tap any to open it.

Important note: Instagram says you can view the 300 most recent posts you’ve liked.

Step-by-step Way

Let’s walk through it together:

Step 1: Open Instagram and go to profile
Tap your profile icon (bottom right) in the Instagram app.

Step 2: Open the menu and find “Your activity”

In your profile, tap the three horizontal lines (top right).

Then select Your activity.

Step​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ 3: Go to Likes

Within Your activity, find Interactions (or a similar label) → then Likes. This takes you to a list of things that you have liked.

Step 4: What you’ll see

You will be shown a grid or list of posts (both photos & videos) that you have liked, with the most recent likes displayed first. Any item can be tapped to open it.

Step 5: (Optional) Clean up or revisit

If by mistake you liked a thing that you don’t want in your feed (or to affect your feed algorithm) you can tap it and select ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌Unlike.

If you find a video you love and want to save it for later, consider using the “Save” (bookmark) feature instead of just like, this makes retrieval easier.

If you liked a lot of content, this list can become long. Instagram allows selecting multiple posts and un-liking in bulk.

Limitations and things to know

The feature works only in the Instagram app (mobile). You can’t access the full list of your liked posts via the web version easily.

You’ll only see up to the 300 most recent posts you liked. If you liked more than that, older likes won’t show in this list.

Instagram groups photos, videos, and Reels together under “Likes” they aren’t always separated by type. So if you’re looking just for videos/Reels, you might need to scroll or filter manually.

Because the list is limited and sorted by time, older liked videos might get buried or become harder to find.

Pro‐tips to make the process smoother

  • If you often like videos you want to revisit, use the Save/Bookmark function instead of merely liking them. You can create custom collections (e.g., “Travel Hacks”, “Funny Reels”) to organise.
  • To clean up your likes (for example topics that no longer interest you), use the Select / Unlike feature to batch remove. This can help your feed algorithm steer back to things you like.
  • If you’re hunting for a specific video and you remember roughly when you liked it, go to the top of your “Likes” list and use the sorting options if available (some articles mention you can filter by date or author).

Keep the Instagram app updated; features and menu names sometimes change.

If you don’t find what you liked, check whether you liked it or saved it (there is a separate “Saved” section). Liked doesn’t always guarantee you saved it, so saving is more reliable for “find later”.

How To Delete Your Instagram Account? Get To Know The Steps

What about Reels or videos specifically?

Yes, the above method includes videos and Reels that you’ve liked. While Instagram doesn’t give a perfect filter just for “videos I liked” versus “photos I liked”, you can still browse the list and tap on items to see the post type. According to Lifewire: “Instagram bunches all your likes in one view … but you can use the Likes page to filter out posts or reels.”

So if you’re specifically looking for “videos I liked”, focus on tapping and identifying the video/Reel posts in that list.

How to View Your Liked Reels and Videos on Instagram: Troubleshooting common issues

I don’t see the menu option “Likes” or “Your activity”: Ensure you’re on the latest version of the app, and you’re logged into the correct account. Also note: feature names may differ slightly across iOS vs Android.

I liked something ages ago, but it’s not showing: Likely because Instagram only shows up to your last ~300 liked posts. Older ones are beyond that limit.

I only see some posts, not Reels or videos: Go through the list carefully. Reels/videos are mixed in. Also, if you didn’t like the video but just watched it, it won’t appear in “Likes”. (There are emerging features for “Watch history” of Reels, but not universally available yet.)

Privacy concern: Are others seeing my liked videos? Generally no, your list of liked posts is private and only you can see it via Your activity. However, note that Instagram has introduced features where “friends” might see some liked Reels in a Friends tab. If that bothers you, check your activity visibility settings.

Will this method help if I liked a video but now it’s deleted or the account is removed?

If the post (photo/video) was deleted by its owner or the account is removed, you’ll still see the placeholder in your “Likes” list, but it might open to a “Post unavailable” screen when you tap it. So yes you’ll find it, but you might not be able to view it anymore.

How to View Your Liked Reels and Videos on Instagram: Quick Summary

Profile → Menu (three lines) → Your activity.

Interactions → Likes.

Scroll through your liked posts (photos/videos).

Use Unlike if you want to remove something you don’t want influencing your feed.

For easier retrieval of videos you loved: use Save/Bookmark instead of just like.

Keep in mind: only ~300 most recent likes are visible; older likes may not show.

Use filters (date, author) if your version of Instagram supports it.
