What to know

  • Every post needs a photo or a video. Up to 10 make a carousel, and a single video goes out as a Reel. Stories take one photo or video.
  • Captions take up to 2,200 characters, 5 hashtags and 20 @mentions. More hashtags can go in the post's first comment.
  • Instagram doesn't let apps change or delete posts. Do that in the Instagram app.
  • Analytics shows each post's views, likes, comments and shares.
