Instagram Rolls Out New Carousel Reordering Feature

Instagram users can now reorder photos and videos in new carousel posts after publishing, addressing a top user request and eliminating the need to repost content.

  • Today, Instagram started rolling out carousel reordering, confirmed by Instagram chief Adam Mosseri as one of the platform's most-requested features, allowing users to rearrange photos or videos after posting.
  • Users have long struggled with the inability to reorder carousel content post-upload, previously requiring deletion and reposting if images were misaligned.
  • To reorder, users tap their profile, select a carousel post, press the menu, choose 'Edit,' long-press any photo or video, drag it left or right, and tap Done to save; carousels support up to 20 images or videos.
  • Like most new Instagram feature rollouts, carousel reordering is reaching users gradually; the Monday announcement suggests a few days for the feature to become available across all regions.
  • While carousel reordering addresses one user request, the feature only reorders existing content and cannot add new media to established posts, as Instagram simultaneously rolls out Reels algorithm controls and removes end-to-end encryption for DMs.
