What is Restyle?

Every day, the world of social media undergoes a new metamorphosis. This time, Instagram is on the scene. This time, Instagram isn't just another update. Things look set to change dramatically with the new Restyle feature.

So, What is Restyle?

In short, Restyle is an innovation that allows you to instantly transform photos and videos with text commands. With Restyle, you can reshape your content, change the background, remove objects, or give it a completely new style with just a few taps. In this article, we'll take a closer look at this innovation.

Instagram, connected to Meta, is now integrating artificial intelligence directly into the content editing process at the Stories level. Restyle allows users to type text commands on photos or videos, using options like "add," "remove," or "change." It also offers preset effects like anime, 8-bit, and watercolor, as well as styles like snow effects and flame animation for videos.

How to Use Restyle?

To create your Story, tap the + sign and select a photo or video.

Click "Restyle," indicated by a paintbrush icon in the top menu. Select "Add," "Remove," or "Change," and enter the change you want to make in the text box (for example: "change the background to a sunset," "change the red jacket to a pastel purple jacket").

You can choose from pre-made effects for the photo or video or request a custom edit with text commands. Click "Done" to finish the process and share your Story.

Additionally, with the "Add Yours" tag, you can allow your followers to use the same effects in their own content, increasing engagement.

Why Restyle is Important?

Things to Consider When Using Restyle

This feature is still being rolled out globally—some users in Turkey may not have access yet.

Pre-made effects, as well as custom prompts, can have limitations; current results aren't always perfect.
