Can Instagram highlights be rearranged or be ordered?

If I want to reorder my Instagram highlights, is it possible? a friend says it is, but I don’t see any option for that on the app.

If somebody says something is possible, ask him to show it. Maybe it’s only possible on their site, not in their app?

Yes you can

There’s no direct feature within Instagram to re-order your Instagram Highlights, but there is a hack to get the job done! While experimenting, I found out that the Highlight that will move to the beginning of your list is the last edited one. “Edited” is defined as adding an Instagram Story to the Highlight.

So, say that you have Highlights appearing in this order, from left to right: Food, Outfits, Vacation. If you want Vacation to appear first (before Food), all you need to do is add one of your archived Stories to the Vacation Highlight. Simple, right? The last edited Highlight will always move to the front of your list.

Say there’s a scenario where you want Vacation to appear first in your list, but you don’t have any relevant Stories to actually add to the Highlight. Here’s what you do:

1. Add any random archived Story you have to the Vacation Highlight and click “Done.”
2. Go back into the Vacation Highlight and delete the Story you just added.
3. You’ll notice that even though you’ve now deleted the last (and random) Story you just added, it still orders Vacation as first in your list now. And that’s it! Edit the order of your Highlights however you want.

Nice!

There’s no immediate component inside Instagram to re-request your Instagram Highlights, however, there is a hack to take care of business! While testing, I discovered that the Highlight that will move to the start of your rundown is the last altered one. “Altered” is characterized as adding an Instagram Story to the Highlight.
