The most commonly used characteristic on social media platforms for stories is the changing of background color.
Most of the features of Instagram have the first step as changing the background that can be a general change of colors in the story. But there are many filters that you may choose and make changes to your post.
For changing your background, you have three different options according to the background type that needs to be added to your story.

Setting up a Solid Background

• Instagram automatically chooses a default color when you share a post
• It is not a compulsion to stay on that similar color
• You can choose a different option for color that highlights your content properly

But how do you do that?
Take a look at the following instructions

• Click on your story and capture a picture or a video
• You may also select existing ones from your gallery
• Just start the highlighting process by pressing on the icon of the brush
• From the available options choose a color
• You will be able to see that your story has been applied with new background

If you have selected an already existing post and according to the brand you want to change the background, then the marker can be used to choose the similar color present in your post
