How To Put the Temperature on Instagram Story?

ByCaesar Hours

The Instagram story section provides an excellent platform to experiment with various types of content and share them with other users. With numerous stickers and filters at your disposal, you can create engaging and interactive content.

For example, you can let others know the temperature of your current location by using a temperature sticker. So, how do you add the temperature to your Instagram stories?

People use Instagram stories to share moments from their lives, and unlike curated posts on their news feed, content posted in stories disappears after 24 hours. This gives you the freedom to add any filters or stickers you desire.

In this article, I will outline the steps you can follow to display the temperature on your Instagram story. Additionally, I will demonstrate how to add the temperature sticker to your collection for future use.

Do You Have the Temperature Sticker?

To display the temperature on your Instagram story, the first prerequisite is having a temperature sticker available. Here’s how to check if you have the sticker:

  1. Launch the Instagram app on your mobile device.
  2. Tap the plus button at the top to start creating a story.
  3. Select the “Story” option at the bottom to proceed.
  4. Upload a random video or photo from your gallery or capture one using Instagram’s camera.
  5. Look for the stickers icon, which appears as a squared box with a smiley face, and tap on it.
  6. Scroll down the list of stickers until you come across the temperature sticker. It might be displayed in either Celsius or Fahrenheit.
  7. If the temperature sticker is missing, you’ll need to add it to your stickers collection. To use the temperature sticker, ensure your device’s GPS is enabled by tapping the location button in your phone’s settings. This allows Instagram to access your location information for accurate temperature data.

How To Enable GPS on My Mobile Device?

Here is how you can enable GPS on your phone.

On an Android Phone  

On Android phones, you can often find a quick settings option. To access it, simply pull the screen downwards from the top. If the location icon is turned off, tap on it to enable it.

  3. On the location access page, you’ll find an “Access my location” button. If it’s switched off, turn it on to enable location services.
