Instagram is finally letting users take control of their profiles with the long-awaited ‘grid customization’ feature—giving everyone the chance to rearrange their posts just the way they want.
The feature is rolling out to all users starting this week.
With the new rollout, everyone will now be able to rearrange the order of their photos and videos on their profile.
This much-requested feature, previously tested in beta, is designed to give users more creative control—whether to curate a visually striking grid or spotlight standout moments.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri shed light on the platform’s motivation behind the update, emphasizing the need for a more relaxed, user-first experience…
“We know creative expression can feel intimidating, especially when posting something to feed. To address this directly, we’re exploring a way to let you quietly post to your profile without broadcasting it to everyone’s feeds,” Mosseri said.
“We’ll also make it possible to re-order the posts on your grid. We hope this added flexibility over how and where your content shows up helps you create and share without added pressure.”
