The Segments tool then automatically splices this longer video into 15 second segments, that will play consecutively for your viewers. To do this, simply:

(B) Add the longer video segment into a branded template.

(C) Hold down the record button for the duration of your take.

You do not need to do any video editing yourself if you want to upload a video to Instagram Stories that is longer than 15 seconds. Instagram automatically divides the first minute of your video into 15-second chunks. You’ll need to use a third-party tool like CutStory if your video is longer than a minute.You’ll be able to upload videos ranges in size from 15 seconds to 10 minutes. The upload limit is increased to 60 minutes if your account is checked or if you have a large number of followers.
