Instagram’s multiple photos feature is a great way to show off several of your best images in one post.
You can even share a post with multiple videos too – up to ten photos and videos at once.
Here’s a guide on how to do it. We’ll also answer some of the most common questions about how to post on Instagram too.
Let’s dive in!
How do you Post Multiple Pictures on Instagram in 2022?
1. Tap on the plus icon on the top of the screen
When you open Instagram, by default, it will show you the home page.
On the top bar, you’ll see a plus icon – that’s the one that allows you to upload your content. By default, it opens as a New Post.
Another way to do it is by going to your profile page and tap on the plus sign there. In this case, it will open Create menu. Here, choose Post.
2. Tap on the double-picture icon
To reorder the photos, you have to deselect them and then reselect them in the correct order. (Yes, this is something Instagram needs to work on.) For example, suppose you select five photos and want to move photos 3 and 4 to positions 4 and 5, respectively. First deselect photos 3 and 4. At this point, the former photo 5 becomes photo 3. Then select the former photo 3, which becomes photo 4, and then select the former photo 4, which becomes photo 5.
Applying filters and adding photos
After you have selected your photos and tapped Next, the Edit screen appears. The top of the screen displays the photo you’re editing.A row of filter types appears below the photo. Swipe from right to left in the row to view all the filters. To apply a filter to all photos in the group, tap the thumbnail image under the filter name.
At the right side of the screen, you see part of the next photo in your photo group. To see the other photos, swipe left. To add another photo to your post, swipe to the end of the row, tap the + icon, and then select the photo from the Camera Roll screen.
Editing photos individually
To edit a photo, tap it in the row of photos. The selected photo appears in the center of your screen. Now you can do the following:- Add a filter: Swipe right to left in the filter row, and then tap the filter thumbnail image.
- Change the exposure and brightness levels at once: Tap the Lux icon (half-light, half-dark sun) at the top of the screen.
- Perform other editing tasks: Tap Edit to access the editing tools.
Adding information and sharing your photos
When your photos are the way you want them, tap Next in the upper-right corner of the Edit screen.In the New Post screen, you can write a caption, tag people, add a location, share your photo on other social networks, and turn commenting on and off.
You can't write a caption for each photo when you have multiple photos in your post. So when you write your description, the caption should describe all your photos, not just one.
