Instagram Tests Ability to Allow Highlights Appear in Search

Instagram may allow users to add hashtags and location to Stories Highlights. This option has been tested, and it allows adding up to 4 hashtags.

Once fully introduced, this capability will make it possible for Highlights to appear in search. It could bring new ways businesses can make their products posted in Highlights searchable using location or hashtags. Highlights have been used by online stores and businesses for displaying their products, so these changes could add more value to this instrument in terms of the possibility of being discovered.
