Instagram now allows users to leave public comments on other's Stories which will be visible to everyone for 24 hours.

Some Instagram users discovered that their photos had been permanently deleted this week and the images were unable to be recovered.

Users can now share photos from their Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses directly to their Instagram Story without ever needing to take out their phone.

Friday, Instagram announced a new update to its Stories feature allowing users to create their own "Add Yours" templates.

In an attempt to raise awareness of the critical conditions in Ukraine's second-largest city, former professional footballer David Beckham handed the control of his Instagram account to a Ukrainian doctor working on the frontline.

Instagram has introduced a new feature via a Stories sticker called "Add Yours," which allows users to create public threads in Stories that anyone can participate in.

Twitter has announced that it will shut down Fleets citing low usage. Fleets were originally launched in November of 2020 and were designed to compete with Instagram and Snapchat stories.

Instead of giving users an edit button, Twitter instead today rolled out a new feature called Fleets. Fleets are a knockoff of Instagram Stories, which are of course a knockoff of Snapchat Stories. Time is a flat circle.

Instagram is making changes to its home screen by adding two new tabs: Reels and Shop. Reels is described as a way to discover "short, fun videos from creators around the world," and the Shop tab is designed to give users faster access to brands and products.

Instagram has officially launched the re-sharing of other people's posts in your stories. The feature was previously spotted by a small set of guinea pig users back in February and is now being rolled out to everyone.

Instagram is testing out a new feature that Snapchat helped make famous: users are being notified when other people shoot screenshots of photos and videos in Instagram Stories.

We reported in November 2017 that Instagram had begun testing a "Regram" feature similar to Facebook's Share feature, which lets people repost your content on their pages with full attribution. Now Instagram is reportedly testing the ability to Regram other people's photos in the Stories you create.

Instagram is moving further and further away from its mobile-centric routes. Instagram has just announced that Stories can now be watched on desktop Internet browsers.

Instagram today announced that Stories will begin appearing on the app's Explore page, allowing the public to discover interesting new stories to watch. The service is also rolling out suicide prevention tools to support struggling users.

Well it’s here, and whether you like it or not, Instagram’s new Stories feature is taking direct aim at Snapchat and the minutia of our daily lives. I, for one, am loving it. Stories allows us to share things with our followers that we might never post, humanizing our digital personas and connecting with the community in a totally new way.

Instagram just took a page from Snapchat's book by announcing Instagram Stories, a new feature that lets you share temporary slideshows with multiple photos and videos.
