Instagram’s carousel feature, which has allowed users to combine up to 10 photos and videos in a single post since 2017, just received one major update and much needed: now, you can delete a single image or clip from the carousel without deleting everything.

In a video update posted on Twitter on Tuesday, the director of Instagram, Adam Mosseri, explains how the new photo deletion option works.
To remove a photo or video from the carousel, tap the three-dot icon and then the edit button. From there, swipe to the image or clip you want to delete and then hit “delete.” Mosseri readily admits that the feature was delayed a long time ago, and while it is currently only available on iOS, Android users can look forward to it soon.
Users in the United States have access to an additional new feature this week: the “Rage Shake”, which, as you may have guessed, comes into play when users encounter frustrating experiences in the application. When you run into a problem, all you have to do is shake your phone to bring up the Instagram Bug Report interface, allowing you to tell the business exactly what went wrong. It will help Instagram prioritize the specific problems it needs to solve, Mosseri says.
What’s next, now that Instagram users have gotten the photo deletion option they’ve been asking for for years? Hopefully a dedicated iPad app.
