In recent years, social networks have become a showcase. For this reason, every detail of the publications made on these platforms is increasingly taken care of. Instagram has brought new changes to your profile. Users usually transmit their essence in the profile of this visual social network. To do this, they maintain an organized feed, with a similar visual style. Now Instagram has launched the option for users to pin up to three posts, including photos or reels, to the top of the profile.
How to Pin Posts on Instagram
The company claims that the new feature will give creators more flexibility to express themselves on their profiles. To pin a post, navigate to the specific photo or camera roll and click on the three dots in the top right corner and select “Pin to your profile”. Once done, the post will appear at the top of the profile grid.

Your profile is your space, so we’re looking at more ways to give you control over that experience.

The option to pin a specific post to the profile is a welcome feature for users who want to highlight their favorite posts that may be further down in their photo grid. This feature could also be useful for creators who post often but want to highlight a specific post. Currently, users have the option to pin Stories to their profile, but this new feature expands this ability to post. It can fix a photo, a sequence of Photosa videoa sequence of videos or even a Reel. The ideal would be to make a combination of three elements that is perfect, to define the personality of the account and the way of creating content.
This new feature makes that process much easier and simpler. It should be noted that it works similarly to Twitter’s “Pin to your profile” feature and TikTok’s “Pinned videos” option, which allow you to pin content to the top of your profile.
