Instagram is removing Swipe-Up links for Stories, replacing the function with Link Stickers

According to external sources , Instagram removed the swipe-up function on stories and replaced it with a link sticker. Instagram has confirmed that all users who can currently access the swipe-up link for Stories will be able to access the new link sticker, with swipe-up links to Stories.

The new sticker will function in much the same way, allowing users to add a link to their story and let people follow them.

The phrase has become one of the most commonly used on Instagram Stories, where followers are regularly urged to swipe up for links. It is an easy way to allow people to find things elsewhere on the internet, given that Instagram largely doesn’t allow people to post the links themselves, either in stories or in posts.

The new link sticker will provide a range of benefits:

A streamlined stories creation experience - Stories stickers, like Donation, Music, Poll, and now Link, help you further express yourself and share what matters to you on Instagram - in this case links.

Added creative control - The sticker looks and functions the same way as others (i.e. question, poll, and location) - providing increased creator control. It can toggle to different styles, be resized, and be placed anywhere on your story for maximum impact.

Further engagement - We also know that engagement and closeness are important to people. Users can receive quick reactions and replies on posts that have the link sticker, like any other story that is shared (e.g. the tray of emojis), whereas you couldn't receive feedback with the “swipe-up” link.

We think the sticker function is a good idea which should be used by everyone who has this opportunity to add their links to it. Day by day there might appear new updates and new initiatives. It is important to get involved and be the first to experiment. This will totally increase your social media knowledge and of course, your social media presence.
