Did you know that every time you upload a picture or video by default Instagram stores a copy on your phone? You can usually find them in your Gallery along with the original picture and video.

Go to profile as usual, click the three dots in the upper right and go to the settings section, now look for the option with the toggles that says: Save original photos, Save Videos After posting and turn these two features off.
6.Preview images without opening up each one
I refer to this feature as peek and you can do these on any page where you have several Images such as on the search page or your profile page with your pictures. First when the tiled images appear simply press and hold any image you want to see more clearly and it will pop out in an expanded view and you can see it clearly without clicking the Image which can save so much time.
7. Post Notification Feature

Well you can all you have to do is go to that specific users profile, then while on the user’s profile page click the three dots upper right and select :Turn on post notifications. Thats it now you will know when that user adds a posts each time.
8.Download Instagram Videos and pictures
