However, individual Reel creators might have enabled downloading for their own videos, so you can check if the option is available on the specific Reel.

As of September 2021, saved Reels on Facebook did not have an expiration date, meaning they would remain in your “Saved” section until you decide to remove them manually. However, this is subject to change depending on Facebook’s future updates and policies.
As of my last update, Facebook did not provide a direct sharing option for saved Reels. You could share a link to the original Reel from the creator’s profile or share the link to the original post where the Reel was published. The ability to share saved Reels directly might be introduced in future updates.
