Instagram’s latest feature lets you add tagged posts to your profile grid
Instagram has added an option that lets users move posts they’re tagged in from the Tagged tab onto their main profile grid. The change allows users to display tagged photos on their profile without reposting or removing the original post.
Why It Matters
The update gives users and creators more control over how their profiles look and offers a lightweight way for collaborators or brands to surface shared content without republishing it. It builds on Instagram’s recent set of profile- and editing-focused tools to simplify content management.
Key Facts
- Feature: Add posts you're tagged in to your main profile grid
- Availability: Rolling out starting today (per Instagram)
- How to add: From DM notification, from the post itself, or via the Tagged tab
- Original post behavior: The original post stays in place; adding to your grid does not delete or duplicate it and can be removed from your profile independently
- Creator use case: Instagram says it can help creators showcase tagged posts without republishing or using 'Invite collaborators' and can benefit multi-creator brand campaigns
Instagram is introducing a new option that lets users place posts they’ve been tagged in onto their primary profile grid. The company says the change is intended to give people more control over what appears on their profiles without forcing them to repost content they were tagged in. Users can add a tagged post to their grid from the DM that notifies them of the tag, directly from the post, or by using the Tagged tab on their profile. According to Instagram, adding a tagged post does not remove or duplicate the original — the source post remains unchanged, and the item can be removed from the profile grid later without affecting the Tagged tab. Instagram highlights several practical uses for the feature, including creator collaborations and multi-creator brand campaigns where participants may want to surface the same piece of content on their individual profiles. The company positions this as an alternative to republishing content or relying solely on the platform’s existing 'Invite collaborators' option. The addition is part of a broader effort by Instagram to give users more control over their profiles and streamline content creation. Earlier in June the platform introduced a 'Reorder your grid' tool, and it has recently launched editing features such as 'First Draft' — which assembles trimmed clips into an initial cut — and a 'Replace Audio' tool that lets users swap the music on an existing post.
