Instagram users can insert in their stories links to videos posted on their channel on IGTV. The feature, available in the application for iPhone (iOS) and Android phone, is ideal for increasing the audience of the channel on the Instagram video platform.


The procedure creates a button similar to links in commercial accounts with more than 10,000 followers. In this way, people are redirected to the linked video and can learn about other contents of a channel on Instagram TV. This feature is available to all users with a channel on the new Instagram video platform. Check out how to insert IGTV links in Instagram Stories posts in the following tutorial.
