Instagram is once again changing how you manage your profile. As of September 10, 2026, it is now possible to add a post published by another account where you are tagged directly to your feed.
Previously, posts where you were tagged remained in a dedicated tab. Now, they can also join your profile's main grid directly.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Good news: there is no need to repost the content.
When an account tags you in a post, a new "Add to Grid" option appears. You can use it directly from the DM notification, the post itself, or your tagged posts tab.
The post then appears on your feed with a small icon indicating that it is a post in which you have been tagged.
And don't worry: the post remains on the account that originally published it. Adding it to your feed does not create a duplicate or change the author of the post. You can also remove it from your grid whenever you want, without deleting the original post.
A REAL PLUS FOR CREATORS AND BRANDS
For creators, this new feature is especially useful for highlighting collaborations.
A photoshoot, a campaign, or a group photo published by a brand can now appear directly on the creator's profile without them needing to repost the content. It is a convenient way to keep a record of collaborations while maintaining a consistent feed.
For brands, it is also a new way to bring a campaign to life. If several creators are tagged in the same post, each can choose to add it to their own profile, thereby giving more visibility to the content.
This update comes as Instagram gives users more and more control over their grid. Since June, it has been possible to rearrange the order of posts on your feed.
It is a small update, but one that could well change how creators build their feeds.
