And after the photo app introduced its Stories in 2016, users could share image and video content for 24-hours at a time.
The feature was a big hit and has remained that way, however, many Instagram users are unaware that they can actually add filters to their Stories after they have taken them.
Filters can really add extra oomph to an image or video, enabling content to both stand out from the rest and leave a lasting impression.
How to add a filter on a Story after taking it
First, you have to go to the Instagram app then click on the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen, or swipe left to open Stories.
Once you’re in stories you can either upload an existing image or video by swiping up or take one using Instagram’s built-in camera.

Once you have selected the filter of your preference, you can hit done at the top of your screen.
Next, you can either save the image into your phone’s gallery for sharing at a later time or post it then and there for all your friends to see.
