Customization on Instagram: Here’s the New Feature Inside the Feed!

Thanks to a new feature, Instagram is enhancing user profiles both in terms of aesthetics and feed management. The platform had already announced this long-awaited update at the beginning of 2025, currently available only on mobile devices, under the name “Edit Grid”.

Meta’s platform is revolutionizing chronological feed display. Previously, users couldn’t rearrange their posts once published, except for pinning up to three posts at the top of their profile grid. This new option clearly favors user preferences, allowing posts to be reorganized based on the number of likes and interactions, or simply by aesthetic taste. The key concepts here are flexibility and customization.

To rearrange your profile, just go to your personal account icon and hold your finger on the post you want to move. There’s a slight difference between iPhone and Android users. On iPhone, the “Edit Grid” option appears directly – just tap it, and a screen with all posts in chronological order will open, letting you change the layout by dragging posts. On Android, after holding a post, tap the three dots at the bottom right of the preview to reveal the option – and voilà, from there the process is identical to iPhone.

Instagram is a powerful business tool for content creators, influencers, and companies. The ability to rearrange already published posts (without deleting or reuploading), organize them to build color palettes or graphic layouts as needed is extremely valuable. This new feature is a real asset for developing effective, adaptive strategies over time, regardless of the original posting date.

In conclusion, this update enhances and innovates the user experience for all types of accounts, whether business or personal.
