Creating Instagram Stories <strong>Highlights<\/strong> covers is a quick and easy way to revamp your Instagram profile and highlight your awesome stories!<\/p>\n<h2>What size are Instagram highlight icons?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The proper sizing of an Instagram highlight cover will have square dimensions. I recommend using the dimensions 2000 x 2000 pixels and an aspect ratio of 1:1. This is similar to the Instagram profile picture size and uploads very similarly as well.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I make a highlight cover without posting it?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Hold your finger pressed on a Highlight.<\/li>\n<li>Select \u201cEdit Highlight\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Select \u201cEdit cover\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Press on the \u201cimage\u201d icon at the beginning of the list.

Tada!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why can&#8217;t I add stories to my highlights?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Enable Save to Archive For proper functioning of Instagram highlights, a setting known as Save to archive should be enabled. That saves your stories in your archive. Later, you can add any past story to your highlight. If that isn&#8217;t enabled, you will not be able to use Instagram highlights.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I rearrange my highlights on Instagram?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4hT0wq_EKsA\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can you add story highlights from camera roll?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you want to add a story from your gallery or camera roll directly to your Highlights, this wouldn&#8217;t be possible because Instagram only allows you to share a highlight based on what you&#8217;ve uploaded on Instagram stories and left for a full 24 hours.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can I change my highlights from close friends to public?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Go to Settings\/Privacy\/Story\/\u201cHide Story from\u201d and select all your followers.
