Picking the perfect photo or video to post to Instagram can be a challenge, but now thanks to a new update, you don't have to choose.
After it was spotted in beta, Instagram is officially rolling out a feature that lets users combine up to 10 photos and videos in a single post. The images will appear in a carousel-like view, letting your followers swipe through to see what's next.
While this all-in-one format will help prevent you from spamming your feed (how many photos of your last vacation do we really need to see?), Instagram imagines uses such as chronicling a birthday party from set-up to blowing out the candles, or detailing a step-by-step how to.
You'll now see an icon when uploading images to help you select more than one. If you want to change the order in which your photos or videos appear, simply tap down and move the slide to your desired location. You can also apply filters to every image in one go, or edit each individually.
Unfortunately, you can't write a caption for each image and all posts are square-view only right now. If you're scrolling through your feed and see a post with little blue dots along the bottom, it means there's more to see. If you're on someone's profile, a little layered icon will denote a multi-image post.
To access Instagram's latest, make sure you have the most current version of the app on iOS or Android.
