    Instagram now allows you to post 60-seconds length video as Stories

    "Now, you will be able to play and create stories continuously for up to 60 seconds, instead of being automatically cut into 15-second clips," says the spokesperson. color:#252525">

    color:#252525">Digital Desk: Instagram is set to roll out a new feature for
    uploading longer, uninterrupted IG Stories. The new feature will let users
    share 60-second stories in one slide. Currently, Instagram does not allow users
    to share longer videos in stories in one go. Instead, it breaks the video into
    15-second mini-clips. In a report by TechCrunch, a spokesperson from Meta
    confirmed the new update on Instagram stories. "Now, you will be able to
    play and create stories continuously for up to 60 seconds, instead of being
    automatically cut into 15-second clips," says the spokesperson.

    is constantly adding new features to keep the app engaging and participatory.
    The new version will be useful for those who want to continuously upload more
    video content. Additionally, viewers who frequently have to tap to view the
    entire video would find it useful. Users' story trays might also get cleaner
    thanks to it. Given that they would have to wait longer to view the entire
    video, it could not be popular with all users. Instagram Stories does not have
    a playback speed setting (yet).

    becoming increasingly hazy on Meta-owned social media. Reels, for instance,
    are now posted with video posts. The length of the reels was recently enhanced
    by the firm from 60 to 90 seconds. Additionally, the app's designers are trying
    a new Story layout using this. Excessive posts will be hidden by the new
    function. Users can currently post up to 100 stories. The number of stories
    shared after the upgrade will remain the same, but viewers will now see a
    "Show All" button to view all of the stories.
