Instagram has quietly upped its limit for carousel posts to 20 items. That means those “photo dump” posts on your feed will now include even more images and videos. This update doubles the previous limit of 10 pieces of content that can be fitted in a single post.
Instagram’s updated carousel post feature
This feature was in testing for a few months and initially began with a 15 item limit before expanding to 20. The new feature is already available to most users and if it’s not, you should update your Instagram app to the latest version.
Instagram’s key competitor TikTok offers an even larger pool with up to 35 photos and/or videos in a single post.
