Create a collaborative collection on Instagram
When you see a post in your Instagram feed and choose to save the post or share the post to a conversation, you can also create a collaborative collection with friends to organize the posts in a shared space.
Collaborative collections that you create allow you and others to see posts you’ve saved, while also allowing them to add posts to the collection.
Start a collaborative collection
To create a collaborative collection from your feed:
- Tap
below a post you see in your feed, then tap New collection.
- Enter a collection name.
- Tap
next to Allow friends to join this collection.
- Select people from the list or search for their username. Note: You can add up to 250 people to your collection.
- Tap Save in the top right.
To create a collaborative collection from a chat:- Tap
or
in the top right of Feed.
- Tap a conversation from your Chats list.
- Tap
- Enter a collection name and tap Save in the top right.
Once you create a collaborative collection, people you’ve shared the collection with will receive a notification in their messages. Note that people added to an existing group chat will also be able to view collections already included in that chat. If anyone is removed from or leaves a chat, they will no longer be able to view a collaborative collection belonging to that conversation.
Anyone that can view the collaborative collection will be able to save future posts to the collection or remove posts from the collection.
From your conversation, you can find collections that are created by tapping the chat name at the top.
Keep in mind
- Private collections you’ve already created can’t be shared with others.
- A collaborative collection can’t be made private after it’s created.
- When you add a private account's post to a shared collection, only people who follow that account will be able to see the post. The person who uploaded the post won't be notified.
- When a post is deleted by its creator, it will no longer be visible to anyone on Instagram and will also be removed from the collaborative collection.
- A collaborative collection can be deleted at any time by anyone who can view the collaborative collection, regardless of who created the collection. People in your chat will be notified when a collection is deleted. Learn more about how to delete a collection on Instagram.
