This Cool Instagram Trick Will Organize Pictures Instantly

If you are one who has a long list of following on Instagram, chances are that you often miss out on interesting pictures and exciting videos. And you can blame it squarely on the incoming deluge of Instagram posts.

Though a majority of us wouldn’t admit, a straightaway solution was to quickly grab a screenshot of the post, for later references. Thankfully on December 2016, Instagram launched a feature which allowed users to directly save pictures and videos of their ‘Instagram followings’ through the Bookmarks feature.

But this feature had a slight drawback — all the pictures, regardless of the categories, got mixed up. So, you might end up with images of gourmet food and sea beaches, all rolled together under a single roof.

Thankfully, Instagram now lets you organize bookmarks into neat little bundles called Instagram Collections. Which means that the pictures of the mouth-watering burgers don’t necessarily have to rub shoulders with cool sea waves.

So, let’s have a quick look at how this cool Instagram trick for organizing pictures work.
