Instagram will now start allowing users to post 9.16 photos to their feed as part of a new test the company is now undertaking in a week or two. This bit of news came out of Adam Mosseri’s weekly Q&A As you said that users would gain the ability to have tall photos on Instagram.

It’s already possible to share 9.16 Images directly through Instagram. Right now you can only do so through the Stories feature on the app Meaning that those photos disappear unless users save them as a highlight to their profile. Currently, vertical photos that users post top out at 8:10 as long as users crop them correctly.

The timing of this new test seems to be off as Instagram recently announced that they would walk back the unpopular full-screen interface for users the company had been working on since mid-June. Because most people did not like it, there’s a new test that seems to indicate the fact that the company is trying to re-explore that territory and they might just enter it very soon still intending to move towards a more TikTok-like experience that keeps users pinned to the screen.
