Instagram excites users worldwide with its latest update. The platform rolls out Instagram's ‘Your Algorithm' tool, a powerful feature that puts you in charge of your Reels recommendations. Instagram announced this innovation on December 10, 2025, and it empowers you to view, edit, and personalize the topics that shape your feed. Users now enjoy a more tailored scrolling experience that matches their changing interests.
Instagram's ‘Your Algorithm' tool marks a big step toward transparency and user control. Many people wonder why certain Reels appear endlessly while others vanish. This new tool reveals the AI-driven topics behind your recommendations and lets you adjust them directly.
How Instagram's ‘Your Algorithm' Tool Works

Instagram designs the feature simply so anyone accesses it easily while watching Reels.
- Access the tool: Users spot an icon in the upper right corner of any Reel. It shows two lines with hearts. Tap it, and “Your Algorithm” opens instantly.
- View your interests: AI summarizes your top topics based on your activity, such as likes, watches, and shares. For example, it displays: “Lately you’ve been into creativity, sports hype, fitness motivation, and skateboarding.”
- Share your summary: Users post this fun description to their Stories. Followers see what shapes your feed, similar to sharing Spotify Wrapped.
- Customize topics: A personalized list appears below the summary. Users select topics to see more or less of them. Reels adapt quickly to these changes.
- Add new topics: If a favorite interest misses the list, users type it in manually. The algorithm includes it right away.
Instagram's ‘Your Algorithm' tool stands out from competitors. TikTok offers a similar “Manage Topics” feature, but it uses only generic categories. Instagram personalizes your list fully and allows custom additions.
