Instagram has added a new feature that allows users to repost other people’s public posts, called “Instagram reposts.”
Instagram now lets you reshare public posts and reels directly to your own feed with a simple click on a new icon 
This feature is currently only available in the US, and it will be rolled out to other countries soon.
What Is Instagram’s New “Repost” Button?
The new “repost” button on Instagram lets you show another “public” post of another user in your feed.
When you repost something, it gets its own “Reposts” tab in your profile next to “Reels” and “Tagged” posts.
Just remember, only content from public accounts can be reposted; private content stays private.
Additionally, you can only repost if the creator has allowed it.
How to Repost on Instagram
This is how you can repost a post on Instagram:
1. Find any public post or Reel you want to share.
With the new Instagram feature kicking in, it’s now easier to repost an Instagram post and it can be saved on your feed.
2. Tap the Repost button under it.
So, when you see a public post or reel click the button to repost that content.
3. To add your own text, tap the small bubble near your profile picture at the bottom.
Instagram lets you add your own text on the repost to hear what’s your idea or what you have to share about that post that you chose repost.
4. Write what you want to say, then tap Add.
You can write whatever you want to say about that post, but if you just wanted to repost it to be there, that’s okay too, you can just leave it as it is.
5. The repost will appear in the Reposts section of your profile.
Finally, in your profile section, inside the repost section marked as will be used to save all your reposts, so feel free to visit whenever you feel like it.
Note:
You can only repost if the creator allows it.
You can’t repost something that’s already a repost.

Tap the Repost button again.
It will disappear from your profile.

Final Thoughts
Instagram’s new repost feature makes resharing content so much easier just like how other similar social media’s are.
You can even use the repost feature to support fellow businesses and other products that other companies provide, support friends, or even let other people see what you’re interested in.
