Dive into 3-minute reels, 15-frame carousels, and updated hashtag searches
Instagram is rolling out some fresh updates that are about to make our feeds and stories more engaging, creative, and discoverable. Let’s dive into what’s new and how it’s going to change our day-to-day.
Reels Just Got Longer: 3-minute videos are now a thing.
Instagram just introduced the option to upload 3-minute-long Reels. This feature is perfect for those of us who love to tell a story, share tutorials, or just need that extra time to get the vibe right. While it’s still in the testing phase, with some lucky users already getting the chance to try it out, this update could mean bigger, better content for all of us soon.
Carousel Posts: 15 Frames Dump
Carousels have been our go-to for when one picture just isn’t enough. Now, imagine getting to share up to 15 images or videos in a single carousel post. Instagram is testing the waters by expanding the amount of photos you can add to carousel posts, giving us the perfect excuse to post all those extra holiday pics without spamming our feed. It’s like having your mini photo album in one post: more memories, more moments, and definitely more engagement.
Hashtag Discovery Option
Gone are the days when tapping on a hashtag would only show you the top posts. Instagram is switching things up by broadening hashtag search results. Now, when you get curious about a #hashtag, you’ll be led to a full page of discovery – from accounts and audio to places and, of course, trending Reels. It’s all about connecting us to a wider range of content and creators, making it easier to explore our interests and stumble upon new favourites.
So, What Does This All Mean for You?
These updates are all about giving us more room to play, share, and discover on Instagram. With 3-minute Reels, your storytelling just got a major upgrade, letting you dive into your content without watching the clock. The expanded carousel posts are a dream for anyone who loves to share in bulk but keep it all in one place. And the new hashtag search? It’s your ticket to discover and be discovered.
