Split-screen and reaction reels are some of the most-shared formats on Instagram and TikTok — before/after, duets, and picture-in-picture reactions. The free Reel Maker builds them in seconds: drop in two clips and choose a top/bottom or side-by-side split, or a picture-in-picture reaction, then add captions and music. No watermark, no signup, nothing stored. Here’s how.
Upload two videos, or paste links to download reels you want to combine.
Choose Split top/bottom, Side by side, or Reaction (picture-in-picture).
Add AI auto-captions and a music track to tie it together.
Download your split-screen reel with no watermark.
Split-screen vs picture-in-picture
A split-screen puts both videos at equal size — top/bottom is ideal for 9:16 before/after and duets, while side-by-side suits comparisons. Picture-in-picture keeps one video full-frame with a smaller clip in the corner — perfect for reaction reels where your webcam sits over the content you’re reacting to. The Reel Maker offers all of these as one-tap templates.
Make it pop
Add auto-captions so viewers follow along on mute, drop a trending music track underneath, and pick a bold cover frame. Need the source clips first? Use our free downloaders to download reels and combine them. It’s all free, with nothing stored.
Tip: For reaction reels, keep your picture-in-picture window in a corner that doesn’t cover the key action in the main clip.
