    HELP! Accidentally Liked an Old Instagram Post! What happens when I unlike it?

    Have you ever experienced the situation when you accidentally like an old Instagram post someone made? If you unlike it immediately, will they know? The Head of Instagram explains the difference between how phone notifications work vs. Instagram in-app notifications. Also, I share my favorite takeaway from the Creator Economy Live event for when an Instagram post flops, the Edits team adds the ability to share directly to Stories, and the musical artist Sombr shares his songwriting process where he only writes song snippets to see what performs well before writing the rest of the song.   Links: Instagram: What happens when you like someone's old Instagram post?

    Will Adding Multiple Captions to Instagram Carousels Boost Reach?

    The Head of Instagram answers questions weekly, and on this show, I dissect the answers. On today's episode, we break down who can see what on Instagram - if someone can tell you viewed their profile, if there's a way to know who saved and shared your post or Reel, and if someone sends you a DM you haven't accepted yet, if they can tell you read it. We'll also get in to some reach related questions, including if having multiple captions on a carousel will boost reach, and if carousels are still valuable. Plus we get into some feature suggestions, and at the end, I ask for questions so I can do my own Ask Me Anything episode.   Links: Creator Live East event - July 29th - NYC (Register!) - Use code "INSTASTORIESPOD20" for 20% off!   Leave a Review of the Podcast: Apple Podcasts   Connect with me on Instagram: @danielhillmedia Connect with me on Threads: @danielhillmedia Connect with me on YouTube: @danielhill_media   Leave a Review of the Podcast: Apple Podcasts     Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Get the Chronological Instagram Experience Back with the Following Feed

    People say all the time how much they wish Instagram could go back to the way it was before the algorithm - back when things were chronological and you saw content from only the people you chose to follow. Instagram lets you do that with the "Following" feed. Also you can remove an Instagram follower without them knowing, and Instagram added the ability to replace the audio on any of your existing posts.
