How to Change Background Color on Instagram Stories 

Thank you so much for watching. Don't forget to subscribe for more social media and tech videos! Thank you for your support!

Thank you, Instagram, for making such simple tasks complicated!

Why is this simple command so complicated?

2:07 video starts

After I watched this and knowing how complicated it is, I don't care anymore with the background color.. WTF 😂😂

Any ideas about how to change video background color? I tried everything and it keeps laying the color OVER my video... 🙄

How come when I do this it covers the image too?

Thank you so much! Been doing this by painting the whole page with the brush.

FOUR MINUTES OF VIDEO FOR THIS???

I could swear that there was a feature of changing the background to gradient ( adjusting it). Like when im sharing a post. The feature is gone, or maybe it's just my phone doesn't support it anymore

This is your anti-user friendly technological world.

You can also use sharpie to paint your background and instead of copying the image from somewhere else, use the image sticker. It's amongst all other stickers. Cheers

There must be a neat way to do this with videos...

At 3:10 minutes, this was VERY helpful for the background! I wish Instagram would make it easy, but I really appreciate your help!!

I was struggling to change this from a long time... Thanks for this 🤘

Thank you!!! I would have never thought to hold down to change the background.

Thank you for the video! I thought there was a simpler way within insta story creation, did it a few times in 2019 but cannot remember how now.

Thanks for this cogent, clear, and succinct explanation! All the others were not helpful.

Absolutely love this video Thank You

Super helpful! Thank you!

Since the last update (re-sharing post) I can't change the color of the background so I just have to use the ones that they have and I hate it. I also can't put a reel using all the screen : (

Brilliant. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!!! This really helped

Oh my gosh the last option is sooo easy like when you said for iphones I wanted to try it and it worked! Its bc when I take a screenshot its saved in my clipboard and I can paste it on instagram so I am soo happy THANK YOU

perfect thank you ❤️

thank you so much for this video! i had already known of these hacks but they never worked for me until i follow your steps!!

Omg. Thank you so much!

Great tips!! Thank you 🤩

Very helpful, thank you!

omg thank you so much!

i still don’t have the new color feature with the question box the colors won’t show at that bottom

Great video mate!

sir what mic do you use?

Thank you for this useful tutorial! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😃

Thank you so much for showing how to do this.

wait wasn’t there used to be default backgrounds in colors? i used to use them back in 2019 but I don’t know what happened to them

Thank you so much !

this is exactly what I was looking for ....thank you so much !!!

Thank you so much!!

Thank u sooooo much this was sooo helpful!

Thank you 🙏🏼, it is helpful .

I found a way to do this with videos. 1. Select a vid from ur camera roll 2. Press the drawing tool, click the dropper, and select the color u want 3. Hold down on the screen to fill it in with the background color (yes the vid is covered, we’ll fix that) 4. Click the eraser and erase where the video is 5. To get a clean border, click the text button and use the dropper to make the text the same color as the background 6. Type in a bunch of dashes on the largest size (fill a single line and make sure to use a font where the dashes connect and don’t have spaces in between) 7. Expand the line u made and put it on the border of ur vid to cover uneven erasing 8. Save the story so u can edit it/add stuff to it without messing up the background :)

Very helpful thanks xx

brilliant video. so easy to follow.

Thank you !!

Ganun pala yun!!!!! tagal ko nang hinahanap kung paano yan ,Thankssss a lot

Guys why native gradient backround doesnt work when I try to make a stories from post? When I post the backround is in solid color from the start.

Thank you!

So helpful!!

Thank you so much 💕

Thanks man it worked great

Thanks!

so how do i put my picture

Instagram not understanding that an April Fool’s joke is only supposed to last a day

Please, can anyone tell us how to change background igtv (in stories) before we share it to public ? I mean that we get an automatic background after we select the repost button (in this case whether it's video or igtv), and i want to change to something new. All videos in youtube is tutorial how to change background in "photos" stories, but not in the "video" stories or "igtv" stories (repost button).

Any way we can do that for videos??

Doesn't work. When I select the color, the original selected color stays the same

How do you click the profile i click but nothing

Thank you Iwill try to change my background 😊🙏

What happened to the option to just post texts without taking a picture???? Why does Instagram have to change things

How can you change the background with video??

I can't believe it's so hard to change a background color. It's mind blowing.
