  • Open the Instagram app on your mobile device.
  • Go to your profile by tapping on your profile picture at the bottom right corner.
  • Tap on the three horizontal lines in the top right corner to open the menu.
  • Scroll down and select "Settings" at the bottom of the menu.
  • In the Settings menu, tap on "Account."
  • Under the Account settings, tap on "Story Controls."
  • Look for the option labeled "Swiping" or "Auto-Advance" and toggle it off.

By turning off this option, Instagram will no longer automatically advance to the next story when you're viewing them, allowing you to manually swipe to the next story instead.
