How to View Saved Reels on Facebook (iPhone, Android and Computer)
Can't find the Reels you saved on Facebook? Here is exactly where saved Reels live on iPhone, Android, and computer, plus how to find Reels you liked or watched.

On this page
To view saved Reels on Facebook, open the app, tap the Menu button, then tap Saved. All the Reels, posts, and videos you saved are there. You can also open the Reels tab, tap your profile icon or the three dots at the top, and tap Saved to see only your saved Reels.
Facebook moves its buttons around from time to time, so the exact look may be a little different on your phone. The steps below cover iPhone, Android, and a computer, plus how to find Reels you liked or watched but did not save.
How to view saved Reels on iPhone and Android
The Facebook app works almost the same way on iPhone and Android.
Method 1: From the Menu
- Open the Facebook app.
- Tap the Menu button. On iPhone it is at the bottom right. On Android it is at the top right. It looks like three lines or your profile picture.
- Tap Saved. If you do not see it, tap See more first.
- Tap the filter or All button at the top and pick Reels to show only Reels.
Method 2: From the Reels tab
- Open the Facebook app.
- Tap the Reels or Video tab.
- Tap your profile icon or the three dots at the top right.
- Tap Saved. On some older app versions, you tap See all next to "Recently saved."
Both methods show the same saved Reels. Use whichever one is easier for you.
How to view saved Reels on a computer
- Go to facebook.com in any web browser and log in.
- On the left side of the page, click Saved. If you do not see it, click See more.
- Click the filter or More button at the top right of your saved list.
- Choose Reels to show only saved Reels.
Your saved list is linked to your account, so Reels you save on your phone also show up on your computer.
How to save a Reel so you can find it later
If you want to keep a Reel to watch again, save it:
- While the Reel is playing, tap the three dots on the right side or bottom.
- Tap Save reel or Save video.
It goes straight to your Saved list. You can also add it to a collection, which is like a folder. Collections help when you save a lot, for example "Recipes," "Workouts," or "Funny."
How to find Reels you liked but did not save
Facebook keeps a record of the Reels you liked in your Activity log.
- Tap the Menu button.
- Tap Settings and privacy, then Settings.
- Scroll to Activity log and tap it.
- Look for Your interactions or Likes and reactions.
- Scroll through the list, or use the filter to show only videos.
This list can be long, so it helps to know roughly when you liked the Reel.
How to find Reels you watched but did not save or like
This is harder. Facebook does not keep a simple list of every Reel you watched. Here are some things to try:
- Check your video watch history. Some versions of the app have a Watch history or Videos you've watched section under the Video tab or in the Activity log.
- Search for the creator. If you remember who posted it, go to their profile and tap Reels.
- Search for key words. Type words you remember from the Reel into the Facebook search bar and tap the Reels filter.
- Check your messages. If a friend sent you the Reel, it will still be in your Messenger chat.
Next time, save any Reel you might want again. It takes one tap and saves a lot of searching.
Why your saved Reels are missing
If a Reel you saved is gone, one of these is usually the reason.
| Problem | What to do |
|---|---|
| The creator deleted the Reel | It cannot be recovered |
| The creator made it private | Only people they allow can see it now |
| Your app is out of date | Update Facebook in the App Store or Google Play |
| You are on a different account | Check which account you are logged in to |
| The app is glitching | Close and reopen the app, or check on a computer |
| Weak internet | Saved Reels will not load on a slow connection |
If Reels will not load at all, the problem may be your connection. Our guide on fixing slow internet at home can help.
Clear up space if Facebook is slow
Watching lots of Reels fills up your phone with cached video files. If Facebook feels slow or your phone says it is almost full, clearing the app's cache can help.
- On Android: Go to Settings, then Apps, then Facebook, then Storage, and tap Clear cache.
- On iPhone: Facebook does not have a clear cache button. You can go to Settings, then General, then iPhone Storage, then Facebook, and tap Offload App, then reinstall it.
Your saved Reels will not be deleted. They are saved to your account, not your phone. For more ways to free up space, see what to do when phone storage is full.
Tips to keep your saved Reels organized
- Use collections. Sort Reels into groups like "Recipes" or "Home tips" as you save them.
- Clean out your list. Unsave Reels you no longer need so the good ones are easier to find.
- Save the creator too. Follow creators you like so you can find their Reels quickly.
- Share it with yourself. Sending a Reel to yourself in Messenger is another easy way to keep it.
If you also watch a lot of videos on YouTube and want to keep your history private, see our guide on how to delete YouTube search history on your phone.
The bottom line
Your saved Facebook Reels are in the Saved section. On the app, tap Menu, then Saved, and filter by Reels. On a computer, click Saved on the left side. If you liked a Reel but did not save it, look in your Activity log. And if a saved Reel is missing, the creator may have deleted it or made it private.
