If you are a regular of Instagram Stories or Stories, this information interests you. And it is that the famous social network is testing a new feature that may be useful for you.
As you know, Instagram Stories are temporary publications When users upload them, they have a maximum duration of 24 hours. Then they disappear. The stories are no longer available. There is no other remedy. This is, in fact, one of its reasons for being.
Well, as The Next Web explained today, it seems that Instagram is testing a type of Stories that would not necessarily have to be from the same day they were captured. At the moment, the feature is being tested with a very small group of users But if things go well, the most logical thing will be that this feature will be extended. And it will be then when the Stories concept will change substantially.
Instagram Stories older than 24 hours
Instagram Stories will last 24 hours. There seems to be no change. And the stories will continue to be as ephemeral as at the beginning. What will change is the type of images that can be uploaded.
If until now you could only choose photos taken in the last 24 hours, from now on you may also have the option to rescue images taken in the last week .
Simply, when you access the gallery to choose a photo for your Stories, what you will see at the top will be “Last week” instead of “Last 24 hours ».
At the moment there is no information on how or when these options will be available. So we have to wait to see if this option will finally be applied to the Instagram applications for iOS and Android.
