How much content did we produce on Instagram Stories last year and let them swoon? Those ephemeral posts – which end up in an archive visible to the individual user – are often containers of insights, tastes, news, images, articles shared on the web or personal stories that deserve to be saved for others too, for those who follow us. It is possible to do it starting this year highlight specific collections of stories on your Instagram profile. So that they are always available to everyone (those who have access to our profile).
The featured stories are factual posted on the profile, reachable from the circles located below your biography, possibly scrolling horizontally if there are more than five collections. There are two ways to compose these selections. The first is to switch from the single story that you intend to save: tapping «Highlight», the item at the bottom right of each story, a menu will open that will allow us to insert that little piece of life into a already existing collection or of create a new ad hoc one.
If, on the other hand, you intend to recover a series of past stories, and therefore now expired and no longer accessible from your most up-to-date stream, you need to go through the profile. By touching the «+» you will in fact have access to thearchive of your stories, through which to recover all those united perhaps by the in-depth topic, by the style, which tell of a destination visited or the various steps of a tutorial for cooking a dish or revealing a trick for taking photos with a smartphone. You can go back years, although it’s not exactly the smoothest job. In fact, it would be better to have immediately clear the idea of opening a collection of stories when the first fragments related to a certain theme are published.
The covers collections of stories can be easily customized by choosing an image using the “Edit featured story” command and then, at the top, “Change the cover» (still from the app, of course). If you want to be more precise, through a series of photo editing apps and the creation of content formats for social networks (such as Canva or Visme) there are ready-made covers that can be customized.
