How to pin particular post on your Instagram profile
For now, users who have access to the feature are seeing a “Pin to your profile” option that you can select from the three-dot menu next to posts.
The pinned post can work as a welcome post for your profile visitors or a most important post that you ever liked to show to everyone, that comes to your Instagram profile.
Currently, normal users only have the access to pin their stories as highlights on their respected profile page. But now, Instagram is planning to expand this feature by allowing you to pin the post on your Instagram account.

Now, we are going to get this feature on Instagram as well.
Have a look at the below tweet, twitted by an engineer namely Alessandro Paluzzi a few months back.
He quoted a tweet and said that Instagram is working on the ability to pin posts on Instagram profiles, he also added that we can pin up to three posts on one profile.
According to TechCrunch, Instagram is in a testing phase with this new innovation to pinning your posts on your profile photo grid. TechCrunch also said that only some users are having the access to pin their posts by clicking the three dots next to their profile, but now this is going to open for all.
This feature could also be very useful for creators including bloggers and YouTubers, who post frequently but want to highlight a specific post.
Also, Instagram has recently announced Enhanced Tags on Reels, which will be very useful for all creators to receive credit for their work. Enhanced tags allow a creator’s self-designated profile category on their professional accounts to be displayed in their People Tag so that people can share and view a creator’s specific contribution to a photo or video post.
