How To Use Instagram’s Collab Feature

Instagram recently launched a feature which allows two accounts to co-author a post in through the Collab feature.

You might have noticed this in your newsfeed specifically when seeing two different account usernames on the same post. Here’s how you can start Collab’ing with other accounts on your future posts.

How to Collab post on Instagram:

1. Create a Post or Reel and edit it however you like.

2. In the Post’s Details menu, select Tag People.

3. Select Invite Collaborator.

4. Search for the specific account you would like to collaborate with and select them.

5. Hit Done.

6. Share your Post!

There are some things to note about Collab’ing with other accounts:

• The original author is the post’s primary author. If the original author blocks the collaborator or the collaborator blocks the original author, the collaboration will end.

• The original author’s account settings will determine the settings for the post. If the original author switches their account to private, only their account’s followers can see the post.

• The original author owns the post. If the original author deletes the post, it will be removed from the collaborator’s profile as well.

• The original author’s account maintains the post. If the original author deactivates their account, the post no longer exists. It will be removed from the collaborator’s profile as well.
