Setting a personalized URL for a reel

Paid customers are able to create personalized URLs for reels (this option is not available to in-trial or free users).

To access personalized URL settings, click the gear icon next to the link name on the reel detail page.

When you create a new Share Link, it gets assigned a unique URL that looks something like "play.reelcrafter.com/ZIc3I0qnTr6FzPiDkItN2g". You may prefer this since it's harder for someone to guess the URL for reels you might have, but in some cases, you might want to make it quick to read or easier to recall. Personalized URLs are great for this reason.

Clicking on the "Claim your username" link will open your Reel Settings where you can enter your public username. Your username will be in all of your personalized URLs moving forward, so DO NOT pick something specific to a particular reel. Your name or business name is always a good option.

Now that your username is set, navigate back to your reel’s Share Link settings and click in the text field for the personalized URL, enter a name for that particular share link URL, and be sure to click “Save and Close” to apply the URL. Your personalized URL is ready!

You can change the URL at any time, but be careful with this! If you've already sent out the link and you change it, this will break the link for the recipient. Personalized URLs are case-sensitive.
