The Instagram Stories* section is amazing with so many possibilities. Among them there are functions without which the SMM manager is like without hands. Let's talk about simple but effective: how to share a story on Instagram*, post an IGTV announcement or a post there.

Let's figure out what exactly you can repost in your stories:

• other people's stories on which you are tagged;
• posts from your feed;
• posts from someone else's feed;
• videos from the IGTV section - from your own or someone else's account (preview 15 seconds).

Let's see how it works.

How to repost stories on Instagram* that you are tagged in

When your account is tagged in a story, a tag notification will be sent to your private messages. It also contains an active "Add Story" link to click on.

The standard window for editing Stories will open. Optionally, you can add a link (available for accounts with more than 10,000 followers), stickers, text, and filters.

Next, send the post to your stories. Done - you are amazing!

How to repost a video or photo from your feed to Stories

To share your or someone else's post on your story, click on the airplane icon below the post and select "Add post to your Story". The story editing page will open, where you can add a link, stickers, and more.

By the way, if you don't want your stories to be reposted all in a row, disable this feature in the settings.

How to repost a video from the IGTV section to your Story

The principle here is the same as for posts. If you want to share, for example, a cool live stream, start watching in the IGTV section of the blogger who hosted it, click the plane below the video and select "Add video to your Story."

Repost via SMMplanner

For those who like to work from a computer, the SMMplanner delayed posting service allows you to repost posts in the Stories of any of your Instagram accounts*.

If you select a project with several accounts, you will be able to announce the post of one account in the History of another.

Read more about delayed posting of Stories with cool design in the article "Delayed Instagram* Stories Builder by SMMplanner".

Reposts on Instagram* - a useful feature for effective work on the content of your account:

1. With the help of reposts of publications in Stories, you can announce new posts. We recommend doing this immediately or 4 hours after the release of the post. Everyone who missed the appearance of the publication in the feed will see the announcement in the stories. Use catchy headlines to keep users interested.
2. With the help of reposts with your marks, you can stimulate the activity of subscribers and generate user-generated content. Use social proof to increase the credibility of your products or services with your followers.
3. By promoting a video from IGTV, you contribute to the growth of video views. If the number of views grows significantly, the video will move up and be in the recommended feed, which will also increase the reach.
