Features coming to Instagram’s new tall profile grid.

Instagram’s chief says the changes reflect the domination of vertical content on the platform, and that highlighted stories should be coming to the grid in the future.

Instagram is also building tools that will allow users to re-order their grids and post to it directly without pushing posts to feeds — but Mosseri says this “may very well change as we iterate over the next couple months.”
