If you moved to Georgia from another state, or you’ve been reading general home improvement content online, you might have noticed something: advice that works fine in Illinois or Colorado doesn’t always apply here. The climate is different. The soil is different. The neighborhoods are different. And if you’re hiring someone to build or renovate your outdoor space, all of that matters a lot. Experienced Georgia deck builders don’t just show up with tools. They bring specific knowledge about this state that a contractor from somewhere else simply doesn’t have. Here’s why that gap is bigger than most homeowners realize.

Since its launch, it has gotten lots of new features year by year. One of these features is highlights, which is one of the most loved updates on Instagram. Highlights are a good way to customize your profile and an opportunity to better express yourself on social media. Alright, do you wonder how to add photos to Instagram highlights?
In this article, we will dive into the details of this Instagram feature together. Let’s begin!
How to Share a Story on Instagram
First things first, highlights can only be created with stories. So, before taking a look at how to add photos to your Instagram highlights, if you need to know what a story is or how to use this feature, firstly we will talk about stories a little. In August 2016, Instagram announced a new feature named “Instagram stories.” It is a new way to share a photo or video on Instagram, but it can only be viewed for 24 hours. This feature paved the way for Instagram highlights because it is fully composed of stories.
Do you need to know how to use stories? Don’t worry, now we will take a look at how to share a story on Instagram for you. Because without sharing any story, you cannot use highlights. The procedure is the same for both the Android and iOS users:
Go to the story section
Instagram has whole different sections for its most important and useful features. Stories, as one of these important and useful sections, have their own section which can be reached easily. All you need to do is, if you are on your feed, swipe right, and here is your story section. You can also click on the “+” sign at the bottom of the screen and select “Story.”
Take a story
By using the “O” symbol, you can easily take a story. If you just tap on that once, you can take a photo and if you tap and hold you can take a video. On the left and right sides of the story button, you can also see some filters. With these, you can take different and more colorful stories, if you want. You can also share photos and videos from your gallery by swiping them up anywhere on the story section.
Finalize and share it
After finalizing your story, you can see some symbols on the screen. By using them, you can draw or text anything you want, or you can add some stickers to your story. Done, now you can share your story! If you want to add your stories without uploading them as posts, check Views4You.
What Is the Instagram Highlights Feature?
After completing everything done about stories, now we can take a look at the highlights. What is it and how does it work? Let’s look at its details, too:
It is a feature announced by Instagram in 2017. It is a whole new section at those times, in your profile between your profile bio and the posts you shared. Before this feature, other users could only view your story for 24 hours. But with this feature, people can view your story which you choose to highlight whenever they want to. It is much easier to do than to share a story.
How to Add Photos to Instagram Highlights
If we talked about everything to understand better how to add photos to Instagram highlights, now we can look at the details of it. There are some very basic steps to follow. There are two ways to do it:
From your active stories
Did you share a story that did not even 24 hours passed? So, you need to open your story. You can reach it from the top of the feed or from your profile. At the bottom of the story, you can see the “highlight” writing.
From your archive
If your stories are expired, you can use your archive. To go to your archive, you need to go to your profile and click on the three horizontal line icon in the top-right corner. Then you need to select the archive. From there, you can select the stories you want and choose a current highlight or create a new one.
How Can You Benefit from Instagram Highlights?
Do you have a business, and do you try to introduce it on Instagram? So, you can benefit from this feature. First of all, you can bring together the customer comments. When you highlight them, you can give a feeling of trust to possible customers. Because when they see them, they can buy something more easily from you.
You can also draw attention to your products. For example, you can advertise your brand by highlighting the stories of your products. Or, you may have an ongoing sale. By highlighting it, you can let your customers be better informed about them. You can also inform your audience better about what advantages your brand offers.
Instagram also has a “swipe up” feature on stories for brands to let the followers go to a link easily. Also, when you highlight these kinds of stories you have or had, still the swipe up function can be usable. So, more and more users can go to the link and view your product.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can any Instagram user see your highlights?
It depends on whether you have a private account or not. If you have a public account, any user on Instagram can view your highlights whenever they want. If you are using a private account and as highlights are a part of your profile, they would be private too. So, only your followers can see your highlights.
Can you highlight something without sharing it as a story?
Yes. To do this, you need to go to your app settings and switch your account to private. Then you need to block all your followers from your stories. Then share one and highlight it. After the story disappears, you can remove the block.
