Ever wanted a photo to flow from one slide into the next, like a single panoramic story? The **Edits carousel editor** makes that possible. Edits, the creative app tied to [Instagram](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instagram), now lets you design carousels on a flexible canvas. It’s available on iOS today, with Android coming soon.

## Instagram: A Canvas Built for Creativity

Carousels are no longer just a row of separate pictures. In Edits you can mix photos, videos and text on one canvas, then let an image bleed from one slide into the next. A headline can even stretch across several slides, so the swipe itself becomes part of the story. Familiar tools like colour grading, scale and rotation help you line up every element exactly where you want it.

## Your Brand Comes Along

If you’ve already set up your look in Edits, you won’t start from scratch. Saved presets, including adjustments, colours, audio and text styles, carry over into carousels. That helps your posts look consistently yours, which matters when people recognise your content at a glance. Beauty creator @Beautymavenraven used the feature to showcase her favourite makeup products, combining stickers, her signature yellow font, cutouts and a mix of video and images.

## How to Get Started on iOS?

| Step | What to Do |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | Open Edits and go to the **Projects** tab |
| 2 | Tap **(+)** and choose **Carousel** |
| 3 | Pick the photos and videos you want |
| 4 | Arrange your media on the canvas |
| 5 | Edit with audio, text, filters, adjustments and cutouts |
| 6 | Share straight to Instagram |

## Handy Tips for Better Carousels

Adding slides is simple: tap the “+” button, or pull from the right edge of the carousel as a shortcut. To rearrange, tap the “…” on any slide to duplicate it, insert a new slide on either side or reorder your slides. The layout tool lets you drop several photos into preset layouts, adjust padding and spacing, and apply filters or adjustments to each item individually.

## Why It Matters

Because you can post directly from Edits to Instagram, there’s no need to export and reupload, which helps you avoid quality loss. That makes it a practical option for creators who want polished, designed carousels without juggling multiple apps.
