Instagram is not at all a novel concept, yet it has already swept the world by storm.

 One of the most widely used social media networks for posting images is Instagram. For photo aficionados and photographers trying to get their images to get noticed by their community, it offers a sweet spot. Naturally, Instagram has seen an intense rivalry as a result of its success. Here are a few top-secretive tricks and tips to help you stand out and become more recognisable on the platform.

Scheduling your Instagram posts

You can schedule your posts in advance in the app if you don't want to log in to Instagram every time you want to publish one. You have the choice to schedule your Instagram image posts, stories, carousels and reels. Add pictures, videos, captions, effects and filters while making an Instagram post on the app, then tap Next > Advanced settings > Schedule. To schedule a post, choose a day and time. Select Schedule.

Hidden DMs

Instagram has a collection of message requests called Hidden Requests. These messages came from users who had previously messaged you, but Instagram has marked them as spam or objectionable. You might wish to periodically check this folder to determine whether any messages you have received contain anything offensive or hazardous, or if they were accidentally sorted into the secret requests folder. Visit the Instagram DMs tab. To view hidden DM folders, select # Request > Hidden Requests.

View IG stories anonymously

Are you aware that you may see Instagram Stories in private? There are two ways to accomplish that hack!

Highlights from Instagram: If a story was added to a user’s highlights more than 24 hours ago, you can watch it.

Instagram Downloads: Simply paste the Instagram profile link to view someone’s stories. Since you don’t need to log in to access an Instagram profile, the person won’t be aware of it.

View your direct messages secretly

Another piece of advice for Instagram users who wish to blend in. So that the sender is unaware, you can read direct communications. And no, a third-party service is not required for this. Simply switch to business profile mode on your account and follow the steps.

First step: Tap the messenger button in the top-right corner of the screen after opening your Instagram account.

Second step: Look for the message you want to mark as unread. For Android users, press the message, then choose Mark as Unread from the menu that pops up and for iPhone swipe left and select Unread.

Now, you are all covered up. Utilize all these hidden tips and tricks of Instagram for becoming more tech-savvy.
