Instagram stories glitch: Here's how to fix it

Glitches are annoying especially those that affect your social media leisure time. These days Instagram has gone haywire and is affecting users’ experience. Every Instagram user on iOS is facing issues with stories on Instagram.

Users experience some glitches on Instagram every other day. But they are usually resolved within a few hours. But this time the issue seems like never-ending.

WHAT’S THE GLITCH?

Due to the error, whenever someone adds a new story, Instagram makes you re-watch all the stories from the first one that the user posted. With every new story, you have to first re-watch all the previous ones to reach the new story. Users with iPhone are reporting this issue.

HOW TO FIX THIS?

All you need to do is update your app and ta-da! The update will fix this issue and you will go back to the old stories format.

Yes, it is as annoying as it seems. Other Instagram users are also annoyed with this feature. Here are some of these:
