If you are an active Instagram user, it’s highly likely that you have seen Stories urging you to post your best sunset pictures, memes, or your favorite music track through an ‘Add Yours’ sticker. After testing the feature in Brazil, Instagram is now globally rolling out the ‘Add Yours’ sticker with custom prompts and public responses.
For the uninitiated, Instagram’s ‘Add Yours’ sticker is the company’s new feature that lets users respond to Stories with images. Anyone on Instagram can view previous submissions to the sticker including yours, making it a convenient way to discover content based on the same theme or topic. If you have a private account, others can see Stories added to the sticker while your original story will only be visible just to your followers.
When the sticker appears, type a prompt, place the sticker anywhere on the screen, and post the story. You also have the option to resize the sticker with pinch-to-zoom gestures.
Your followers (or anyone if you have a public account) can then tap on the ‘Add Yours’ button available in your story to add their own submissions. As mentioned above, anyone can see submissions from other Instagram users when they press the sticker.
