They've been out since January 2025… but if you haven't yet worked them into your content strategy, now is the time to take a serious look. Instagram unveiled 3 new features that change how you produce and showcase your content.
More than just a marketing headline, these features offer real opportunities to publish content that's more relevant, immersive, and engaging. Here's how to use them wisely
1️⃣ Vertical grid (4:5 format): showcase your content right from the profile
Instagram is evolving and adopting a vertical grid optimized for mobile. Your portrait-format visuals and videos now take up more room, capturing your visitors' attention better.
Propulse's tip: create your visuals and thumbnails in 4:5 so they fit perfectly with this new layout. Build your grid like a real visual dashboard that makes people want to scroll.
2️⃣ Reels up to 3 minutes: develop your messages without constraint
No more 90-second limit: Reels now go up to 3 minutes. Instagram had limited Reels to 90 seconds to focus on short, punchy content. But facing competition from TikTok and YouTube Shorts, which allow longer videos, Instagram decided to revisit its features.
A great opportunity to develop high-value content:
📌 Presentations of your services
📌 Customer testimonials
📌 Mini tutorials
📌 Behind the scenes of your business
Propulse's tip: hook viewers from the very first seconds, then unfold a clear, structured storytelling. Add subtitles and dynamic transitions to keep attention.
3️⃣ “Edits”: create pro videos directly on Instagram
With Edits, its new mobile video editor, Instagram lets you edit your content directly on the platform, with no watermark or third-party app. You can add text, music, and AI effects with ease.
Propulse's tip: favor native edits to maximize organic reach and stick to current visual conventions.
These new features confirm that in 2025, relevance and quality matter more than quantity. A well-thought-out, well-edited piece of content, published in the right format, beats a string of half-baked posts.
Focus on the essentials: immersive, relevant content that showcases your brand image and meets your audience's expectations.
