Instagram has now added support for longer carousels. You can now add up to 20 images or videos in a single post. The update has started rolling out to all Instagram users on Android, iOS, and other web platforms. Here are the details.
Instagram Adds Longer Carousels
Instagram officially supports adding up to 20 images or videos in a new post. Previously, the limit for a single post was just 10. You can also upload multiple photos and videos in the same post. The longer carousel will be visible on the Instagram homepage and the Explore section. There will be the traditional left and right scrolling menu to browse the media.
This is a helpful update for you if tend to add multiple images to a single post. It will allow you to express yourself better. The feature will also be beneficial for those who prefer to add all photos of an event in a single post, instead of making multiple posts with a single photo.
Instagram’s longer carousel is now live on the official Android and iOS apps. You are recommended to update the app to the latest version from the respective application stores on both platforms to access longer carousels. However, the availability of this feature on the web version might take a while.
Although Instagram has increased the number of photos and videos in a single post, the user interface of the carousel has remained the same. You cannot add a like to an individual photo in a post, instead, the like will continue to apply to the entire post. The comment and share features will also continue to work the same way.
When you share a 20-image carousel on their Instagram story, only the first photo will be visible. Tapping on the post will lead the viewer to other media in the post.
