Is Instagram removing the share button?

At the moment Instagram is testing. They are testing removing the “Share to Story” button on random accounts. This means, they randomly choose accounts to remove the “share to story” option. If you're lucky, you might still have it.

Did Instagram Remove share to story?

Instagram is disabling the ability to share (and reshare) posts from your feed to stories as part of a test to see how it changes engagement with the popular feature.

What does the share button look like on Instagram?

An curved arrow pointing right. You can share a post to your Instagram Story using the paper airplane icon. The menu that appears will give you the option to share a post from any profile that allows sharing in the setting — private posts won't show this option.

You cannot share media on Instagram using the API. See the docs:

At this time, uploading via the API is not possible. We made a conscious choice not to add this for the following reasons:

  1. Instagram is about your life on the go – we hope to encourage photos from within the app.
  2. We want to fight spam & low quality photos. Once we allow uploading from other sources, it's harder to control what comes into the Instagram ecosystem. All this being said, we're working on ways to ensure users have a consistent and high-quality experience on our platform.
