Instagram - How do I add to my story and tag?
Hi guys, I am completely new to instagram and am finding quite a few competitions ask you to share to your story. When I click on the share icon on the pc there is no option to share to story. When I do the same on my phone it says 'add post to story' why do I not have this option on the pc, how do I do it on the computer?…
I’m so confused!!
The old website has now gone and I’m unable to sort the competitions by end date! Any advice?! Thanks!
