How to create collages on Instagram Stories

Inside App Store there are thousands of applications that allow you to create photo collages quickly and easily to share via Instagram Stories. However, the thing that could annoy any user the most is certainly the obligation of having to further occupy the memory of the device for a service that is less heavily used. In this guide we will understand how to "bypass" the download of third-party applications and create a photo collage directly on Instagram.



There are actually two different ways to do it and both are integrated within the official app of the aforementioned social network. One of the two, resumes the functions already seen with the app "Layout", which seems destined to disappear from the stores, while the other is based on a simple use of copy / paste.

Obviously, in both cases, we recommend that you install the latest version of the app, updating it from your digital store.

Once the collage is finished, you can obviously publish it on the social network in the form of History, or download it to use it on other platforms. To do this, simply click on the download icon at the top.
