The good news is that it&#8217;s easy to do, thanks to free apps like Canva and PicMonkey. You can even use these apps to design your highlight images. You can use these templates to personalize your Instagram profile and make it stand out from the competition. Read on to learn more. Alternatively, you can visit Canva&#8217;s website and download their free highlight templates.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Canva\"><\/span>Canva<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Getting free highlight covers for your Instagram Story posts is easier than ever. Using online photo editing apps like Canva and PicMonkey, you can easily create stunning Instagram covers without having to know any programming skills. In fact, Canva even has tutorials for creating Instagram highlight covers. You just need to follow a few simple steps and you will be on your way to a gorgeous highlight cover in no time.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, you can create your own highlight covers by signing up to Canva. This website offers hundreds of free designs for Instagram story covers. Just do a search for &#8220;Instagram highlight cover templates&#8221; and click to view them. Once you&#8217;ve found your template, you can modify it to suit your needs. The highlight cover template that I&#8217;ve used in this tutorial is called Purple and Blue Outline Doodles. After selecting it, you can apply it to all pages or select individual designs.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PicMonkey\"><\/span>PicMonkey<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are lots of ways to get highlight covers for Instagram. You can use an image editor like PicMonkey to create your highlight covers. The tool is free and allows you to upload your own photos, and it has a library of millions of royalty-free stock images. You can customize the templates and add effects to them. But before you start using it, you need to make sure that the image you are working with does not have copyright protection.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have the design, you can export it to Instagram. PicMonkey automatically saves your designs to its Hub cloud storage so you can continue editing them until you find the perfect look for your IG profile. You can even add a corporate logo. It is easy to use, and will let you create a new Instagram highlight cover in a matter of minutes. Here&#8217;s how. You can use PicMonkey to get a highlight cover for your Instagram account for free!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Instagram_icon_pack\"><\/span>Instagram icon pack<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to get free highlight covers for Instagram, there are several different methods. One popular option is using a third party image editing tool. Many free image editing tools are available online, such as PicMonkey, and allow you to customize the appearance of your icons. These apps often offer a wide variety of options, including drag-and-drop functionality and a stock image library. You can also upload your own images, so long as they&#8217;re not protected.<\/p>\n<p>Another option is using the Story Highlight Cover Maker. This app has hundreds of icons that let you create your own cover from scratch. It comes with a free icon pack, but there are several others available for purchase. To design your highlight cover, simply select the icon you want, choose the text, and click &#8220;Save.&#8221; The app will then save the new highlight cover in your camera roll. This is a quick and easy way to change the look of your Instagram profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Canvas_free_highlights_templates\"><\/span>Canva&#8217;s free highlights templates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Canva is a fantastic resource for creating beautiful Instagram covers and highlights. They offer a variety of templates, from plain white to multi-colored icons, and you can even add text. Once you have decided on a design, you can either download it as a JPG or PNG file, or you can upload it to Instagram directly. If you&#8217;re just starting out with Instagram, you may want to experiment with different templates to find the best fit.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve created an account, you can access templates, blank canvases, and more. You can even use the same design for your Instagram highlights and stories. The best part is, it&#8217;s completely free. You can use Canva to create your Instagram highlight and story graphics without spending a dime. And because you can use the same highlight template on both, you don&#8217;t even have to spend any money to design a new highlight!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PicMonkeys_highlight_cover_templates\"><\/span>PicMonkey&#8217;s highlight cover templates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to create your own highlight covers for Instagram, you can do so for free using PicMonkey&#8217;s highlight cover templates. These templates are easy to use and allow you to create visually impressive posts. To create your own highlight cover, simply upload your image and customize the design to match your profile. You can edit the template or make it completely original, either way, using PicMonkey&#8217;s drag and drop features.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from highlight templates for Instagram, other popular social media sites have their own highlight cover templates. One of them is QuotesCover. It lets you add a quote to your Instagram post and allows you to choose from a variety of free images and elements. You can also use Story Highlight Cover Maker for creating a professional highlight cover.
