Instagram is rolling out the ability to rearrange posts on your profile grid, nearly a year after announcing the feature. The update is now available to all users on iOS and Android.

Until now, Instagram profiles displayed posts in reverse chronological order, with users only able to pin three posts to the top. The new feature allows you to long-press and drag posts freely to customize your grid layout. The capability had been tested with select user groups before its wider rollout began on June 8th. Instagram says the feature is available via the mobile apps for both Android and iPhone. This update gives creators and users more control over how their profiles appear to visitors, letting them highlight specific content or create a curated visual arrangement. The change addresses a long-standing request from Instagram's user base seeking greater customization options for their public-facing profiles.
