Story intent and timing

Because Stories rotate, availability can change minute to minute. We explain the flow up front so expectations stay realistic while still capturing high‑intent keywords responsibly.

Format and retention

Exported files are typically MP4. Keep personal archives only for content you are permitted to store; respect ephemeral sharing.

Only use links you are allowed to access; do not attempt to bypass privacy controls.

When Instagram bundles audio with the Story video, it travels inside the MP4.
