This How.com.vn teaches you how to add multiple stories on Instagram. Unlike a normal post, an Instagram story will disappear after 24 hours, and shows up at the top of your feed.

Things You Should Know

  • After uploading your first photo or video to a story, tap the gallery icon to select an additional photo or video to share.
  • If you want to feature multiple stories on your profile, tap + at the top of your profile and select multiple stories.
  • Adding stories to highlights lets you group your favorite stories and feature them at the top of your profile.
