Instagram rolled out an animated text feature for stories to all users. The text editing menu in story creation mode now has a new button on top to make your text animated. Depending on the text style your text could be blinking or sliding from the left.
In order to add animated text to your Instagram story:
- Enter story editing screen
- Tap on the "add text" A button
- Enter the text that you want to have animated
- Tap on the top right "=A" icon to make it blink
- Adjust remaining text parameters such as size and colour
Now you can make your story text move ✨
