Before you start, you need to know the following:

1. Tap the square icon to select multiple photos or videos.

2- A maximum of 10 photos or videos are allowed in each post.

3. You arrange the photos or videos.

4- The result of the work is called “Carousel.”

Here are some interesting, practical, and creative ways to work with the Carousel feature.

1- Post the Instagram panorama

All smartphones on the market allow you to take panoramic photos easily. But if you post them on Instagram, they lose their quality and charm because you can not zoom in on Instagram photos. The new Multiple Images feature is a great way to share a full panoramic photo.

With a bit of searching, you can find many free tools for capturing stunning panoramic photos—download one of them based on whether your phone is Android or iOS. Before starting, take a panoramic image using the app that takes panoramic photographs. Do not use Instagram to do this.

One of these apps is Swipeable. Launch the app and open the panoramic photo taken in it. Divide the picture into several small square images by following the instructions. Then save them in the storage space inside the phone.

Next, open Instagram, tap the option to upload a new photo from within the gallery and select the Multiple Images feature. From the gallery, select the fragmented images; make sure they are in the correct order. Then post it with an appropriate hashtag on Instagram.

2. Create a visual question or poll

For a visual question like which of these two pairs of shoes should I buy? Do you know this? And if you need to answer such questions, use the Instagram Multiple Images feature.

Select all the photos and videos you need and ask your question in the comments section. You can make it so that you get a response or ask visitors to participate in the poll. Of course, it is not as effective as Twitter polls, but to make things easier, you can choose up to 10 options. Eventually, though, you will have to count the results manually.

3- Similar scene, different times

It is one of the old tricks of photographers that makes the viewer admire it more. You can add more depth to your story by showing an image or scene at different times of the day or even on other days with various activities.

One of the most used methods is playing with light and brightness, but you can spend more creativity with a little more thought.

4. Show before and after comparisons

Like the idea of ​​”a similar scene, different times,” you can post photos before and after comparisons, especially for selfies. This method is beneficial if you want to show growth and progress in your story.

This method is widely used for the trendy hashtag #transformation Tuesdays, which shows the progress in fitness and bodybuilding. In addition, it is widely used to show hairdressing skills.

5- How and instructions

It is one of the most prominent cases. The Multiple Images feature allows you to post the command for what you are good at step by step. It could be a recipe, an art project, or anything else that needs training.

Suppose you can put a note on each photo and number them. Using a few hashtags, you can be seen well on Instagram.

7. Use personalized photos instead of a group of photos

When you are with your friends, you usually take group photos. It is better to take individual images instead of group photos and talk about each character separately when you have a tiny screen.

A few lines of talk about each person can be very different for them. You can always have a group photo at the end.
