3 ways to add multiple photos to your Instagram Story
- You can add multiple photos to an Instagram Story by selecting multiple photos, creating a collage, or inserting additional photos as stickers.
- Selecting multiple photos from your camera roll will upload each photo as its own slide in your story.
- Instagram has a built-in collage feature called Layout that allows you to drop several photos into the same slide.
There are several different ways to add multiple photos to an Instagram Story at once.
The first method allows you to select up to 10 photos and videos from your camera roll, which get uploaded to your Story as 10 separate slides.
The second method is layering several photos on the same slide as stickers, and the last method is creating a collage using Instagram's built in feature called Layout.
Here's how to do it all.
