#carousel posts

Instagram is rolling out a long-requested feature that allows users to reorder photos and videos within carousel posts even after they’ve been published. Previously, making changes to a carousel meant deleting the entire post and re-uploading it, often resulting in lost likes, comments, and overall engagement. According to Instagram head Adam Mosseri, the feature addresses a common pain point among creators who want more flexibility in curating their posts after publishing. While users can reorder or remove existing items, adding new photos or videos to an already published carousel is not yet supported. Instagram has rolled out a new feature that allows creators to add unique captions to individual slides within a carousel post. Called Multiple Captions on a Carousel, the update gives users more flexibility when sharing stories, tutorials, product showcases, and other multi-slide content. Once people pick out photos or videos for a carousel, they can tap the “Multiple Captions” option on the last screen for sharing, and then drop separate text for every slide. Before this, carousel posts were kind of stuck with one caption only for the whole thing, like one blanket description.
