Now repost Instagram 'Stories' you are tagged in

San Francisco:Facebook-owned Instagram announced a change to its 'Stories' feature which will allow users to instantly repost a Story they are tagged in, as theirs.

"When someone mentions you in their story, you receive a notification in your 'Direct message' thread with that person. Now you'll see an option to add that content to your own story," Instagram wrote in a blog post late on Thursday.
