New Delhi, Dec.16: Instagram, which is owned by Meta, is apparently allowing a few users to submit lengthier videos on Stories of up to 60 seconds.
The current feature allows a user to shoot or upload a video that is longer than 15 seconds. If the duration of any video is more than 15 seconds then it automatically splits into numerous stories.
Instagram is presently contacting the restricted set of people who have received the upgrade about the change, according to Twitter user Matt Navarra (@MattNavarra). The beta update was spotted by a Twitter user @yousufortaccom in Turkey, according to Matt.

With this, Instagram will be able to outperform competing apps like Snapchat, which does not allow users to post or send longer films as a single upload.
If Instagram brings this update for android and iOS users then they will be able to publish videos to their stories that are up to 60 seconds long without having to divide them up.
