Instagram allows users to reshare posts they've been tagged in to their own Story. When someone else uses the @mention feature to tag you in their Instagram Story, you'll receive a push notification and a direct message that will disappear after 24 hours.

If you've been mentioned in an Instagram Story and want to repost it, you can do so by tapping the notification in your inbox. You'll even have the chance to add text, GIFs, and stickers.

Once republished, the original poster's username will be visible on your Story and will link directly to their profile.

Reposting an Instagram Story you've been tagged in can be done on both the iOS and Android apps, but is only available to those with public profiles. Here's how to repost an Instagram story you've been tagged in.

How to repost an Instagram story

If you tap the push notification that occurs when someone tags you in a story, you can skip ahead to step three.

1. Open Instagram and tap the messages icon.

The messages icon is located in the top-right corner of the screen and looks like a paper airplane icon.

2. Select the message history between you and the Instagram user who tagged you in their story.

3. Tap "Add this to your story."

Before reposting to your own story, consider making changes by adding gifs, emojis, stickers, music or links using story editor.

4. Edit the repost then tap "Next."

5. Choose how you want to post it and who you want to see it through the "Share" or "Send" options.
