I'm now new to insta and I've been on it for some time I just don't know ONE thing....how to I make my stories seem like they don't pause or stop. I want it to keep going like it's continuous
If i make one video of 3 stories, which mean 45 seconds, but i still didnt post them as a story, is there a way to delete dhe first Story 15 sec, or the las one example, and only post 2 stories!
I could not agree more with Linda Adney . I personally have been struggling to learn that for what seems an eternity and this beautiful young lady just nailed. Thank you so much.
Omg I’m a 33 yo millennial, I’ve watched 6 of these and give up every time YOU ARE WAY AHEAD OF ME (this is at least the simplest, but all I want to do is post a preexisting photo & change the background color / maybe tag someone...this is 100% harder than NYU anthro finals and makes absolutely no sense) Every-time I log into insta and decide I’m gonna get back on top of my SM presence I spend 45 minutes screaming at it & end giving up after making accidental story posts ready to throw my phone against the wall and become a Luddite..and it seems like it just keeps getting worse and worse & more complicated with less intuitive UI on the entire internet everyday. Is this actually my ADHD and not my age??? Anyway bless you for figuring it out cause I can’t
Thank you so much for your help! I felt so old trying to figure instagram out. So many tutorials were frustrating and moving too fast. I love the way you went through it step by step, it allowed me to follow along. So informative!
in fact you have shown things more easier and fun, you do not add so much of unnecessary talks which makes your video superb and unique. you need a big hug miss. you are one of the best for showing stuff like this. Instagram should definitely hire you. i love this video so much.
Hi there, very well done beginner instructions for older guys like me. Thank you! My question is - what if you don't necessarily want to take a picture of yourself or video of something, but rather an existing photo or video in your phone's gallery? How do you start with that? Furthermore, how do you edit and get a snippet of an existing video in your gallery? Thank you!
Your info at 13:00 + was what I was looking for! Playing with this now, I've basically worked through dinner time. I also tried the logo-as-a-sticker. It worked until 15:01 - mine doesn't appear as a sticker. It's just another image that is available from the swipe up. Not sure why! Thx for the video! ~ Glory B.
Hey Elizabeth! If you're recording right from within Instagram, yes, you'll need to hold that record button the whole time 🙂 There is a "hands-free" option in the stories mode, so you could use that instead though! xx
spot on advice to instagram, instagram stories and how to uplpoad video on instagram (left photo icon, keep bright circle in lower middle pressed for videos)
Louise thank you so much for sharing this wonderful and extremely helpful video nothing better than when someone can make features on social media a lot easier to understand and way less confusing
Thank you so much. This tutorial has helped me a lot. Somehow I was able to navigate and learn Facebook Stories easily on my own but I don’t know why it wasn’t so easy on Instagram. You made it easy. Thanks again. 🙌🏽🥰
Hi Louise, this video is super helpful. Again thank you so much for this. While watching is video I could see that you are showing up your mobile screen on the same screen. I wanted to ask that how that is done? If you could make a small video about that then I don't have to look around to learn that.
Thank you for this! I feel super old lol, just spend 2 hours trying to figure out why I couldnt add additional stories to my ig. Turns out I was looking at the completely wrong page.
Really enjoyed the beginners Instagram tutorial, but I didn’t get to see how a story will look when posted and I’ve seen stories on some pages with animated or funny captions/titles, how do they do that?
Thank you very much!!! Just started my business and looking for tips on how to do a Instagram story. This video was perfect for me being that I know very little about Instagram.
Thanks so much, I am just starting to do stories and knew there was more to it, but was not knowing what exactly. Now, I will give these tips a try and can tell will have fun with them.
I hope you will continue to help Moms & Pops understand & engage more on IG in order to participate with the world. I will listen to this video on my tablet in order to have my cell phone available to mimic "how to" create stories. Thank you so much for this video, again
Yes i love that! This tutorial helped me a lot! I am from Greece and have a channel regarding maths! Instagram tis are very helpful and welcome! Keep up posting good videos!💯
Hi there - Great tutorial thanks! I cannot see the music icon in the menu though? I just get a calendar date. The app is up to date - any thoughts please? Many thanks
Hi there! At this time it looks as though Instagram is still rolling out all features to users. Keep updating the app and fingers crossed this comes through for you soon! 🙌 - Taylor, Team Louise Henry
Hi there! We don't have a video on that specifically but I would recommend checking out our other videos on Canva because they may be helpful in answering your question! Happy exploring 🙂 - Taylor, Team Louise Henry
Great video thank you. I made a story recently with many photos and it took so long to go to the next photo, do you know of a way to make that time shorter so it can run the the photos faster without having to tap to go to the next photo?
Oh my goodness! I opened up my RUclips and what I needed to learn was your video. I was told by my adult children that FB was "old" social media platform. I own an android phone..... Can I still be able to operate all the features you mentioned? When you create a story, what you see is what your viewer will see? How do you post it? I was also told how what I created in IG can be posted in FB - where does it appear in FB? I'm subscribing to you
Hi Valerie! I want to mention that both Facebook and Instagram are great sources of marketing - and they can help attract different age groups which is even better 🙂With an android, some of these features may be different! Also, when you create the story you're correct that what you see is what your viewer will see! In addition, you can post by hitting "send to" > selecting "share" beside "Your Story". If your Facebook is connected, once you hit share then you have the option to share it out to both platforms, too! Ps. Yay! Welcome!!
Hey there! I would actually use another app to do this for the fastest/easiest experience! You could use an app such as InShot to edit all of these together and then post to Instagram stories 🙂 Alternatively, you could do this via an Instagram Reel > save the reel > then upload to stories! xx
Hi Michele, go to create a story. As soon as it opens up, swipe up from the bottom. This will show you your camera roll and then you can select that and add it in :)
Other senior citizen here: how do you post a story once you have it? Is it true that it disappears after 24 hrs? Great video, I learned a lot, thanks!!!
Yay! I'm so happy that you learned a lot from the video, Daniela! Once you have a story, you'll see "send to.." in the bottom corner, and then you'll see "your story" and a blue button to "share". Simply hit "share" and your story will be posted 🙂 And, yes, it will disappear after 24 hours so if you want something to last longer on your profile then I would suggest posting it as a feed post vs. a story. I hope that helps!
Hey! You can do this with GIFS! If you click on the sticker icon at the top of the page > then GIF > then search starburst you can see what they have there! 🙂
Come hang with me on Instagram! instagram.com/louisehenry & tag me in your wicked Instagram stories!! 🙌
Any qs? Drop 'em below!
I really liked your channel, your presentation, and especially the content you come up with. Great job 👌👌

I am trying to add a 50 minute video i did on IG live to my stores but for some reason, IG wont let me post it. is there a way to post the video?
You show a camera at the top left of my Instagram feed, I don't have that at all. I've done the upgrade - is it someplace else now?
Thank you...This Senior Citizen has been trying to figure this out for months and you told me in minutes...I got this...
I could not agree more with Linda Adney . I personally have been struggling to learn that for what seems an eternity and this beautiful young lady just nailed. Thank you so much.
the fact that you look up tutorial in RUclips means you already get the hang of it tho
Ditto... The issue is that I fear IG because if I do the wrong thing I look like a right plum...
It's admirable you're willing to put in the effort to learn. And that's at any age! Learning never stops
Omg I’m a 33 yo millennial, I’ve watched 6 of these and give up every time YOU ARE WAY AHEAD OF ME (this is at least the simplest, but all I want to do is post a preexisting photo & change the background color / maybe tag someone...this is 100% harder than NYU anthro finals and makes absolutely no sense) Every-time I log into insta and decide I’m gonna get back on top of my SM presence I spend 45 minutes screaming at it & end giving up after making accidental story posts ready to throw my phone against the wall and become a Luddite..and it seems like it just keeps getting worse and worse & more complicated with less intuitive UI on the entire internet everyday.

I'm a 19 year old who doesn't use social media.. I recently created an instagram account and now here I am lol
Hey - whatever works best for you!! I'll have more vides coming that relate to social media so stay tuned 🙂

You are not alone 😂
Really enjoyed the beginners Instagram tutorial, but I didn’t get to see how a story will look when posted and I’ve seen stories on some pages with animated or funny captions/titles, how do they do that?
Solomon eke, Instagram doesn't have animated text yet, so ones that you've seen was likely done using another app... such as Canva or Mojo :)
Thank you!! I’ve needed this!😁
this was super helpful!! Thank you. I will be trying all of these!

This was fabulous! Thank you so much!!
How do you post this or that in your stories? Can’t find the any GIF for that? Thank you.
Hey! For this, you could use a poll sticker! And in the poll area, type in the "this" or "that '🙂
Hi Louise, I can't see the music icon to add to my photo/video. Why? My iPhone is 8+
Oh my goodness! I opened up my RUclips and what I needed to learn was your video. I was told by my adult children that FB was "old" social media platform. I own an android phone.....

Hi. I loved this tutorial! Thank you so much! How do you do a video montage of several clips of different videos in one story?
Hey there! I would actually use another app to do this for the fastest/easiest experience! You could use an app such as InShot to edit all of these together and then post to Instagram stories 🙂 Alternatively, you could do this via an Instagram Reel > save the reel > then upload to stories! xx
I really appreciate your expertise,,,thank you so much!!!
Happy I could help!! 😊
Hi, I was wondering if you know how to add music where you can still hear the original audio? Is that possible?
Hi there! I'm not sure that is possible! You may have to do some outside editing to get that to work 🙂
@@louisehenry Thank you so much for your response!!
Hi Louise, how do I use a photo from my camera roll?
thanks, Michele
Hi Michele, go to create a story. As soon as it opens up, swipe up from the bottom. This will show you your camera roll and then you can select that and add it in :)
You are a great teacher. Thanks
Thank you so much for this! This is so thorough and helpful. I just joined Instagram and I'm so extremely confused! You made this so much easier. ♥️
Thank you very much am new to instagram story , it'll help me... God Bless
Happy I could help! 😊
Other senior citizen here: how do you post a story once you have it? Is it true that it disappears after 24 hrs? Great video, I learned a lot, thanks!!!
Yay! I'm so happy that you learned a lot from the video, Daniela! Once you have a story, you'll see "send to.." in the bottom corner, and then you'll see "your story" and a blue button to "share".

How do you add special effects such as a starburst to a draft for your stories?
Hey! You can do this with GIFS! If you click on the sticker icon at the top of the page > then GIF > then search starburst you can see what they have there! 🙂
