How to add featured stories on Instagram

Before explaining how to name the featured stories on Instagram, it seems appropriate to give you some preliminary information on how to create stories on Instagram and add them to the Highlights section of the photo social network (if you need it).

To do this, launch the Instagram app on your device and log into your account if necessary. I remind you, in fact, that Instagram stories can only be created through the app for Android (also available on alternative stores for devices without Play Store) and iOS of the well-known photographic social network. Once this is done, on the main screen, swipe to the left, in order to open the Instagram camera.

Then, record a video or take a photo, via the shutter button, to create an Instagram story as you usually do. Now, after publishing it, via the Your Story button, click on the Highlight button which is located in the lower right corner of the story.

Finally, type the title of the story in evidence and press the Add button, to add it to this section of Instagram visible on your profile ( even from a computer ).

Stories featured on Instagram can also be renamed at a later time. Therefore, if you have added a featured story on Instagram without giving the album a title, or if you want to change it following an afterthought, you can use the Instagram app for smartphones at any time.

To do this, on the main screen of the social network, press on your thumbnail to reach your profile screen. Then, tap on the highlighted story icon to view it. Once this is done, press the icon (…) and, in the menu that is shown to you, tap on the wording Edit the story in evidence.

At this point, on the next screen, refer to the text field located next to the wording Title to write the name you want to give to the album of your featured stories on Instagram. Finally, confirm the operation by pressing the Finish button. Easy, right?

Tips on how to name featured stories on Instagram

After explaining the steps to create your featured stories and rename them, it’s time to give you some general hints on how to name them.

Featured Stories are used to highlight some of the content you have created and published in Instagram Stories. Therefore, you must make sure that their titles are representative of the content, in an engaging way and able to summarize, in a few words, what is important to highlight on your profile.

For example, if you use Instagram for work and travel, you can rename featured stories with the names of the places you’ve visited. If, on the other hand, you deal with multiple topics on your profile, such as fashion and cooking, I suggest you name the featured stories by grouping them with the names of the topics you deal with.

In the event that, instead, you were wondering how to call the stories featured on Instagram with friends, I imagine that you make a purely personal use of the social network and for pleasure; therefore, you could just give a fancy name to the featured stories that group your outings with friends. For example, you can use words like Friends or Best Friends or, again, use any nicknames you give to your group or the description of a pleasant evening or an event you attended together.
