How to make a group chat on Instagram

If you want to send a message or post to multiple people at once on Instagram, or have a conversation with more than one person, you are able to make a group chat. Here’s how to do it.

Instagram continues to be one of the best places to share all kinds of photo and video content online, with a huge active user base of people interacting with and posting content on a constant basis.

Not only is it a great place to keep up with the lives of celebrities and influencers, but it’s often one of the main ways people keep in touch with friends, through posts, stories, messages, and more.

If you’ve ever wanted to keep multiple people in the loop at once for whatever reason, Instagram actually allows you to create group chats. Here’s how to make one.
