Apps to make your Instagram Stories awesome

Together with over 3.2 million Dutch people, I use Instagram, of which 1.5 million are serious diehards on Stories. A life-size collage of selfies, a portfolio of still lifes and an ode to everything you love. On your Stories, it’s a party every day within 24 hours. Decorated with a drawn heart, your favorite hotspot, or a cozy heart-eyed penguin head; we all know them. But what you might not know yet are these awesome apps. We take inspiration from the it-girls and I’ll share all the tips and tricks to make your Stories graphically even cooler. Bet that the compliments will come flying at you?
