Instagram Highlights is a great feature that allows you to showcase your best moments and content on your profile. Traditionally, to create an Instagram Highlight, you would need to post a story that disappears after 24 hours. However, there is a way to add highlights without publishing a story. In this article, we will guide you on how to put highlights on Instagram without a story.
Create a New Highlight
To start, open the Instagram app on your device and go to your profile. Tap on the + button that says ‘New’ under the ‘Highlights’ section. This will prompt you to choose the photos or videos you want to include in your highlight.
Name Your Highlight
After you have selected the content, you will be asked to name your highlight. Choose a title that accurately represents the theme or topic of your highlight. It can be anything from ‘Travel’ to ‘Food’ to ‘Fitness’.
Edit Your Highlight
Choose a Cover Image
Once you have named your highlight, you can select a cover image. This is the image that will appear on your profile, representing the highlight. You can choose an image from the selected content or upload a new one.
Reorder the Content
If you want to change the order of the photos or videos in your highlight, Instagram allows you to do so. Simply press and hold on the content you want to move and drag it to your desired position.
Save Your Highlight
Once you are satisfied with your highlight, tap the ‘Add’ button to save it to your profile. You can view your highlights by tapping on the ‘Highlights’ section on your profile.
That’s it! You have successfully created an Instagram highlight without a story. Now you can showcase your favorite moments and content on your profile for your followers to see. Remember to keep your highlights updated and relevant to engage your audience.
