Instagram replaced the 'swipe-up for more' link option from stories with a link sticker. Previously, the Instagram Stories links swipe-up feature could only be used by accounts with over 10K Instagram followers. But now, any Instagram account, regardless of its size, can add a link to Instagram Stories. So you don't have to be an influencer or have verified accounts to take advantage of the Instagram link sticker feature.

"Christmas came early," she gushed in the caption and included a red heart. "I'm overjoyed to share that our baby girl - Della Rose Kwan - has arrived!" She continued, "My heart doubled in an instant the moment I held her in my arms, and watching my daughter walk into the hospital to meet her baby sister brought tears to my eyes."

Instagram has introduced one of its most requested features: the ability to reshare public Stories directly to your own Story, even when you were not tagged in the original post. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced the update on Threads, confirming that the new tool, called "Add to Story", is now available worldwide on both iOS and Android. The update marks a significant shift in how content moves across Instagram, finally giving users a streamlined, native way to amplify Stories created by public accounts.

As reported by 404 Media, Instagram is now experimenting with AI-generated SEO titles for users' posts-without those users' input or permission. Take this post for example: Author Jeff VanderMeer uploaded a short video of rabbits eating a banana to his Instagram. The video was posted as-is: There was no caption, location tag, or any other public-facing information. It's just a couple of rabbits having a bite.

As a mark of pure intent, going Instagram official has become a firmly entrenched dating marker. To post a picture of you and your new partner on Instagram on the grid, mind you, not hiding behind the cowardice of a story is to not only declare that you are in love, but also that you are confident enough in your future to share it with the world.

The social media platform now allows users to reshare Stories shared by public profiles to their own Instagram Story. "IG update just dropped: you can now reshare Stories from public accounts to your own Story," Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg announced on Monday, December 8. The update-which is as simple as clicking "Add to Story" after selecting which public Story you'd like to share-has been met with praise from users across the platform.

New York City is endlessly photogenic and a recent study has the data to prove it. Covers.com editor-in-chief James Bisson analyzed millions of Instagram posts and confirmed what locals already know. Five of America's twenty most photographed places are right here in the city, more than any other town in the country. While Disneyland and Walt Disney World take the top two spots, Central Park is the number three most photographed place in the country with 8.47 million tagged posts.

Nearly six years after the coronavirus pandemic began, Meta-owned Instagram is bringing its employees back into the office for a full five days a week. Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced the news to staff in a Monday memo that was then published by journalist Alex Heath's Sources newsletter - Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton confirmed its veracity to SFGATE. The five-day order, just for employees under Mosseri, goes into effect Feb. 2, giving employees a couple of more months with their current three-day mandate.

Like many, I have definitely experienced symptoms of chronic Instagram Story fatigue. I regularly open the app, take a 30-minute swipe through pictures of dogs and babies and nice dinners and influencer events and political statements and then shut the app down feeling like I've gained nothing. Then I open it back up to share a story or a column as if my post is somehow a particularly interesting one compared to everyone else's and therefore an exception to the rule... but I digress.

One of the goals of the Pseutro is encouraging conversation through shared laughter. "I care about being engaged to make the city a better place," they said. "That means that, also, I want to help other people do the same." To help ground the satire, all the articles that inspired the posts are linked via Linktree in the bio. While recent posts about Alcaraz and Supervisor Connie Chan 's congressional campaign drew strong reactions,

If there's anything that I realized a long time ago, it's that Instagram really isn't Photography. It's content delivery, and photographers that really respect the artform and their own work shouldn't think of it as the end-all-be-all. But what I see so often is that when photographers realize that something is doing well for them, they do more of it simply just to get more likes, comments, etc.

The Morning Show star hard-launched her relationship with hypnotherapist and life coach Jim Curtis in an Instagram post celebrating his 50th birthday on Sunday. "Happy birthday my love," she captioned a black-and-white photo of her hugging him from behind. "Cherished ❤️" Curtis - whose website advertises his signature "Hypno-Coaching approach" and who shares content online about the subconscious mind and how to become a "master manifester" - was first publicly linked to Aniston in July when they were photographed on a yacht together in Mallorca.

The couple announced they were expecting a new member of the family earlier this year. Taking to Instagram, the new mum announced the birth of their son, Ross "And then there were four. Meet our little miracle, Ross," she captioned the post. She also shared a picture of the newborn as she posed with husband Rob from her hospital bed.

As you can see in this example sequence, using IG's updated Restyle options, you can now more easily edit your images via conversational prompts in-stream. As explained by Instagram: Whether you want to simply remove an unwanted detail from your story, include a playful element, change the vibe using a whimsical effect, or start a trend with your friends with Add Yours stickers, now you can. Restyle your photos and videos in Instagram Stories to make edits, big or small using Meta AI.

As you can see in this example, posted by creator economy expert Lia Haberman, more users are now being prompted to try out the updated UI, which puts more focus on "your favorite spaces" in the app. Instagram chief Adam Mosseri says that option is coming to all users shortly, so if you haven't seen this prompt as yet, you soon will.

Instagram has officially launched its dedicated iPad app, providing a more optimized and immersive experience for tablet users. Previously, Instagram on iPad relied on scaled-up versions of the iPhone app, which limited functionality and user interface efficiency. According to Meta, the company behind Instagram, the new iPad app is designed to take full advantage of larger screens, offering improved layouts, easier navigation, and enhanced content viewing.

"I feel like everyone deserves to hear both sides of our story," Hudson wrote. "I still and always will love Ariana. She's been there for me at times when I couldn't be there for myself. I still have a lot of things I need to heal from and deal with on my own to become the person I truly want to be. I appreciate all of the love and support everyone is showing us through this difficult time."

Instagram said Tuesday that it would overhaul its approach to teenagers' accounts and try to crack down on their access to objectionable content after a firestorm of bad publicity over how teens use the social media app. Instagram, which is owned by Meta, announced a series of changes that it said were aimed at making teens' experience on Instagram similar to viewing PG-13 movies, with equivalent restrictions on sexualized content and other adult material.
