Can you reshare someone else's Instagram Story?

SEO

No, Instagram doesn't offer a built-in feature to reshare someone else's Story directly from the Instagram app. Unlike posts on the feed, Stories are designed to be ephemeral and are typically shared for a limited time. However, if you want to share someone else's Story with your followers, you have a few options:

1. **Repost Using a Third-Party App:** There are third-party apps available on both iOS and Android devices that allow you to repost Stories. These apps typically work by capturing the screen while the Story is playing and then allowing you to share the captured image or video as a new Story on your own account. Keep in mind that using third-party apps may not always be in compliance with Instagram's terms of service, so use them at your own discretion.

2. **Ask for Permission and Share Manually:** You can reach out to the person who posted the Story and ask for permission to share it on your own account. If they agree, you can manually save the Story to your device and then upload it as a new Story on your account. Be sure to give credit to the original creator in your Story.

3. **Use the Mention Sticker:** If the person who posted the Story has tagged you in it using the mention sticker, you can reshare it by tapping on the mention sticker and selecting "Add This to Your Story." This will allow you to share the Story with your followers while giving credit to the original creator.

Remember to always respect the privacy and content ownership of others when sharing their Stories.

Yes, you can reshare someone else's Instagram Story, but only under certain conditions. Here's how it works and what you need to know:

🔁 How to Reshare Someone's Instagram Story
✅ Option 1: They Tagged You
If someone tags you in their Story using @yourusername, Instagram gives you the option to reshare it directly to your own Story.

👉 How to do it:
You'll get a DM notification saying "X mentioned you in their story."
Tap "Add to Your Story."
Customize (add stickers, text, etc.), then share it to your own Story.
🔒 This works only if the original account is public or if you mutually follow each other on private accounts.

❌ Option 2: They Didn't Tag You
If you weren't tagged, there's no built-in reshare button, but you have a few workarounds:

💡 Workaround Options:
Ask them to tag you so you can repost properly.
Screenshot or screen record the Story (with permission) and manually post it to your own Story.
Use third-party repost apps (like "Repost for Instagram") — though they work better for feed posts than Stories.
🧠 Always give credit and get permission if reposting manually — especially from creators or private accounts.

📌 Pro Tip:
If you're running a brand or collab campaign, encourage your partners or clients to tag you so you can easily reshare their content for visibility and engagement.
