As of January 2020, there are nearly 1 billion monthly active users on Instagram. 1 Billion is a big number, and it positions Instagram behind Facebook (2.8 billion) but ahead of most other social network sites, including Twitter (which has a “reachable†audience of 353 million) and Pinterest (459 million).
The story, rather fittingly, begins with a picture of a dog. Kevin Systrom's photograph of a stray dog sitting near a taco stand in Mexico is the first image ever shared on Instagram. The app's co-founder captioned it 'test', and uploaded it a few months before his idea was launched to the public on October 6 2010.

Instagram Story tip: How to change your photo date and time stamp so you can use older photos
- Upload your photo to iPhoto, then click it so it's highlighted.
- From the Photos tab, choose Adjust Date and Time.
- Then, choose the date and time to which you want to change.
- Finally, share it with yourself.
You can remove the date from the image(s) you add to a Story. That can be more useful. All you need to do is press and hold the date sticker Instagram sometimes adds to images when you add them to a Story and drag it to the trash. The date sticker is removed!
Your active status isn't visible to everyone. Only people you direct message *and* follow will see when you were last using Instagram. If you have a public account, and someone who doesn't follow you sends you a DM, they won't be able to see your active status.
