Instagram Launches Add to Story Feature
Instagram has added a new feature called 'Add to Story' that lets you reshare any public Story on your own Story, even if you're not tagged in it.
This makes it easier to share funny or interesting Stories without having to take screenshots.
The original creator will be automatically credited.
If you don't want your Stories to be reshared, you can turn off this feature in your privacy settings.
The feature is being rolled out globally on both iOS and Android devices.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced this feature on Threads.
Instagram's new 'Add to Story' feature allows users to reshare public Stories directly to their own profiles.
The feature is now live and available globally on iOS and Android, announced by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Threads.
Reshared Stories automatically credit the original creator, maintaining visibility and proper attribution.
Public accounts can opt out of the feature by adjusting their privacy settings to disable 'Allow Sharing to Story'.
Private accounts remain unaffected, with Stories visible only to approved followers and excluded from public resharing.
