In this article, we&#8217;ll talk about how to Repost your own feed posts to your Story, add text to your Story, and even post GIFS. Follow these simple steps to get the most out of your stories on Instagram. And make sure to check back soon for new tutorials!

The first thing you need to do is tap on the aeroplane icon in the bottom right corner of your feed post. Your repost will be shared with all of your followers, but this option is only available if you have approved the content of the original post. You must make sure the account you repost from is publicly visible before you do this.<\/p>\n<p>When you re-post your own feed posts to your Instagram story, it is recommended that you write at least three lines of text. After this, your caption will be automatically truncated, so make sure you have no more than three lines of text. In addition, you can use hashtags to further promote your story, such as #meowchimp. Remember that hashtags on Instagram are only readable when they are under three lines, so make sure you include them as few as possible.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reposting_other_peoples_stories\"><\/span>Reposting other people&#8217;s stories<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Reposting other people&#8217;s stories on the platform can be tricky, but it&#8217;s a valuable marketing tactic. Reposting on Instagram allows brands to highlight human attributes and reliability. This is important in the age of social media and the visual nature of the platform makes it a favorite among billions of people. However, you should always ask permission before reposting other people&#8217;s stories and make sure to provide attribution.<\/p>\n<p>You can repost other people&#8217;s stories if they&#8217;ve mentioned you in their story. This feature was unavailable when Instagram first launched. The feature is called @mention Sharing, and it automatically activates when someone mentions you in their story. The person you&#8217;re tagging will receive a notification via direct message and can add text or stickers to their story. It&#8217;s also a good idea to tag the original poster of the story.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_text_to_your_story\"><\/span>Adding text to your story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How to add text to your Instagram story is relatively easy. All you need to do is open your Instagram story, swipe left or right, and select &#8220;Text&#8221; to add text. After adding text, you can edit its appearance using the &#8220;Edit&#8221; button. There are a number of options, including color gradients and font styles. The font style you choose will depend on your brand and image. For example, if your brand uses a bold, modern font, you should select Modern. It&#8217;s a great option for many brands that use a modern style.<\/p>\n<p>You can add as many lines of text as you want. The text block is very easy to use and can be customized. You can choose different colors and fonts and also change their alignment. You can also add captions. You can even add a photo to your story and share it with others. The possibilities are endless. Just be sure to use an attractive and original font. You can even change the size of the text block to suit the size of your story.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reposting_GIFS\"><\/span>Reposting GIFS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To post GIFs to Instagram, you must first download the app GIPHY and access your camera roll. There, you will be able to add GIFs from your mobile phone or a PC. You can then post the GIF to your Instagram feed or Story. Then, crop it and share it with your followers on Instagram. The process of posting GIFs on Instagram is quite similar to that of uploading photos and videos to Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>To make the uploading process easier, you can use an app called AiSchedul. This app helps you create and schedule Instagram posts. Then, all you need to do is find a GIF and choose &#8216;Share&#8217;. Once you do that, click on the Instagram icon and follow the prompts. In some cases, GIPHY doesn&#8217;t support GIF format. So, you must convert the GIF to an MP4 video to be able to share it on Instagram.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"488\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-LSspEGzfII\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"273\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Share a Post to Your Instagram Story If you want to share a post on Instagram, you may be wondering how to share it on your Story.
