Until a maximum of three posts (including Reels) may be permanently affixed to the top of the Instagram user’s profile. It’s the latest addition to Instagram’s features, a feature that (once again) echoes one of the features already present on another high-profile social platform and bitter rival: TikTok.
The fixed contents can be up to three, including both photos and videos or even Reels
Thus the first three contents will be selected (and not just one) that can be seen by any visitor to the Instagram profile of users who opt for this new possibility that generously expands that first “showcase” that the visitor arrives with a full line.
How to pin content on Instagram profile:
The method to fix the contents is very simple:
-To access to Instagram user profile
-Select a post you want to pin to the top of your profile.
-Open said publication.
-Press the menu with the three horizontal dots that appears in the upper right part of the publication.
-Confirm on the “Pin to your profile” button
-Repeat with the rest of the publications that you want to leave pinned, taking into account the maximum limit of three.

This new function has some parallels with the Featured Stories option and would confirm the rumors that had been sounding since the beginning of this year in the sense that Instagram was already developing this option.
Once again Instagram is inspired by functions and features of rival platforms, with TikTok being the reference and, in turn, a source of “inspiration” for other social networks (such as Facebook) that also develop their own “versions” of successful features in the Instagram. competition.
Instagram has just undergone a visual remodeling process, with a renewed graphic palette and newly released typography, but it seems willing to continue renewing itself, even if it is at the cost of continuing to look like one of its staunchest competitors, such as TikTok.
