Share any Reel to WhyReel and get back what it actually says — separated into what the video shows, what it only implies, and what stays genuinely uncertain.
Most explainers blur evidence and interpretation together. WhyReel keeps them apart on purpose, because that's the difference between knowing something and just feeling convinced.
Words actually spoken, text actually displayed, numbers actually given. Transcribed in the Reel's own language and left untranslated, because it's evidence.
The claim underneath the claim — what you're meant to conclude, stated plainly so you can decide whether you agree with it.
The figures nobody mentioned, the caveats left out, the things the video simply cannot tell you. Named rather than quietly skipped.
The same gesture you already use to send a Reel to a friend. Nothing new to learn.
You're mid-scroll and something's actually useful. Tap share, pick WhyReel — same as sending it to anyone else.
WhyReel goes through the video frame by frame, reads the on-screen text, and transcribes what's said.
The claims, the evidence behind them, and an honest list of what stays uncertain — in your language.
It lands in your library. Searchable, sorted by kind, still there in six months when you need it.
The transcript always stays in the Reel's original language — that's the evidence. Everything else can be read in yours, including the way people actually type online.
No, and it shouldn't. It separates what a video shows from what it implies, and names what's unverifiable. On follow-up questions it can check claims against current web sources and will tell you plainly when the web disagrees with the video — but the judgement stays yours.
No. WhyReel never touches your Instagram account, password, or private messages. It only sees a link or file you deliberately share with it.
Yes — that's one of the main reasons people use it. The analysis is produced in the video's own language first, then translated into yours on request. Hindi typed in Latin script (Hinglish) is supported as its own option, because that's how a lot of people actually read.
They're stored privately in your own account so you can replay them in the app. Nobody else can see them, playback links expire, and you can delete any analysis — or your whole account — from inside the app. Details are in the privacy policy.
There's a free tier with a monthly limit on analyses, which is enough for most people. Heavier use and a permanent library will be a paid plan.
Not yet. Android first, because sharing straight from the share sheet is the whole point and Android supports it properly today.
Share one. See what it actually said. Keep the part that was worth keeping.
