Instagram is finally letting you expand your photos in Stories directly within the app using Meta AI. Previously, users often had to depend on third-party editing apps to adjust image proportions before posting. After this update, you can easily expand your photos without leaving the Instagram app. Let’s start with how you can do this.
How to Expand Photos with Meta AI on Instagram Stories
Here’s how you can expand your photos in Stories with a few taps.
- Open the Instagram app.
- Tap the Home icon.
- Tap on Your story.
- Swipe down and select the picture.
- Tap on the expand icon. (This option appears only for horizontal images.)
- Tap on the screen to regenerate or press to see the original version.
- Tap Done.
- Tap Your story to post the expanded photo.
Now, you can enjoy zoomed-out and properly proportioned pictures in your Stories.
This feature will make it easier to post stories and look more aesthetically appealing without the frustration of cropped or awkwardly resized images. By integrating Meta AI into the process, Instagram is still trying to simplify content creation for everyday users.
