What Are Formats of Instagram stories?

October 15, 2019

Instagram Stoies formats allow you to dictate the kind of content you’ll be sending out to the world. Here are your options:

Normal: Just as it sounds, this is a normal photo or video. They’re just like the ones you would post to your regular Instagram account. You tap the capture button to take a photo or hold it down for up to 15 seconds for a video. The only difference is that Story photos and videos will disappear after a day.

Rewind: Rewind is a normal video that plays backward. This is used entirely for stylistic purposes.

Hands-Free: This handy format allows you to record a video without holding down the capture button. Simply choose Hands-Free, press the capture button once, and take your video. It will run the full 15 seconds unless you choose to manually stop it.

Boomerang: This is one of Instagram’s most exciting format. It allows you record a few seconds long moving GIF that will play forwards and backward until the user exits it. It’s a popular format that is well worth mastering.

Instagram has assigned Stories a good bit of interface real estate. The stories of everyone you follow can be found at the top of your Instagram profile. Simply choose one and it will automatically start playing.

You can also see who has been viewing your stories. This information will be at the bottom of your Stories post. It will state something like “John Doe and x others.” You can tap on that information to see the full list of people that have viewed your story. You can even tap on the individual pieces of content to see the stats for every photo and video.

How to tag someone on an Instagram story

August 18, 2019

In August 2016, Instagram launched Instagram Stories, a social media experience similar to Snapchat with stories that appear on your profile and expire after 24 hours.

Here’s how to tag people on Instagram stories.

Step one: Go to your Instagram feed

To create an Instagram story, go to your Instagram feed. (This is what appears when you log in, displaying the pictures from accounts you follow.)

Step two: Swipe right to create a story

From this screen, create an Instagram story by swiping right.

Step three: Take or upload an image

Use the white button in the center of the screen to take a picture, or hold it down to take a video. Swipe up to upload a picture or video from your camera roll.

Step four: Tap the stickers icon

Add any filters, text, or other effects. Then, to tag another Instagram user, tap the Instagram stickers icon.

The icon looks like a square smiley face with the corner folded over:

Step five: Tap @mention

You’ll now see options for custom Instagram story stickers.

Tap the one that says “@mention.” This is how you will mention, or tag, another user in your Instagram story.

Step six: Search for and select the user

Begin typing the username of the person you want to tag.

As you do, Instagram will suggest friends who have usernames with the letters you are typing.

When the person you want to tag appears, tap on their profile picture. Their full username will then appear on your screen.

Step seven: Edit and resize your tag

You have now tagged someone Instagram in your story. Before publishing, you may want to edit the sticker tag.

To change the tag color: Tap the sticker; each time you do it will change colors.
To resize the sticker: Use your forefinger and thumb in a pinching motion to make it smaller. Move your fingers in the opposite direction to make it bigger.
To move the tag: Tap the sticker and, without releasing your finger, drag it to the desired location.

Step eight: Publish your story

Now all that’s left to do is add the post to your story. Tap the “Your story” button in the lower-left corner to share with all of your followers, or “Close friends” to share your story with your share with story your Instagram close friends.
