Facebook Reels, the platform’s short-form video feature akin to TikTok and Instagram Reels, are a great way to expand your reach and engagement. But did you know you can easily see who’s enjoyed and interacted with your Reels?
This information can help you understand your audience and potentially connect with followers. Here’s how to do it:
Steps on Mobile (Facebook App)
- Open the Facebook App: Start by launching the Facebook app on your smart device.
- Navigate to Your Reels:
- Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in either the top-right or bottom-right corner of your screen.
- Scroll and find the “Reels” option.
- Access Your Profile Reels:
- Tap on your profile picture in the Reels section. This will show you the Reels you’ve personally created.
- Select a Reel: Choose the Reel you’d like to check the likes on.
- View Likes: Tap on the number displayed below the like button (the heart icon). This will open a list of people who have liked your Reel.
Steps on Desktop (Facebook Website)
- Go to Facebook: Open your web browser and go to https://www.facebook.com/. Log in to your account if needed.
- Find the Reels Section:
- Click on the “Watch” icon (looks like a play button) in the left-hand menu.
- Select “Reels” from the options.
- Access Your Profile Reels: Click on your profile picture.
- Select a Reel: Choose the Reel you want to examine.
- View Likes: Click on the number displayed next to the heart icon (like button). A list of users who liked your Reel will appear.
Bonus Tip: If you manage a Facebook Page, the process is the same. Just make sure you’re viewing the Reels section of the Page and not your personal profile.

- Audience Understanding: Identify the types of people who enjoy your content.
- Potential Connections: You might find new accounts to follow or potential collaborators.
- Content Refinement: See which types of Reels get the most engagement, helping you create even better content in the future.
