Key Questions Answered
Instagram's Edits app has introduced a carousel creation feature that lets users combine photos, videos, and text on a single canvas. Creators can move beyond traditional sequences by designing elements that span multiple slides, such as photographs bleeding into another slide or continuous headlines.
On iOS, users can open the Edits app, navigate to the Projects tab, tap the plus button, and choose Carousel. They can then select their media, arrange them on the canvas, use editing tools, and add, reorder, or duplicate slides as needed.
Publishing carousels directly from the Edits app to Instagram removes the need to export and re-upload content while also helping avoid any quality loss during the export process. Additionally, existing visual presets such as saved fonts, colors, and audio carry over to maintain a consistent look.
