An Instagram story with a swipe-up control dragged into place by a fingertip.
Story Swipe suits the link-sticker moment, where the gesture is a drag rather than a tap. The control travels with the finger on identical timings, so it reads as carried rather than fleeing. The story progress bars at the top place it as a story rather than a post.
The control label is the instruction, SWIPE UP TO FOLLOW, and the after label is the state it lands in. Keep both short so they fit the track. The ring colour tints the avatar ring and the fill. Set the handle with the @ and let the progress bars at the top do the rest.
Instagram Story Swipe is built at 1080 × 1920, a 9:16 portrait frame, the shape Reels, TikTok, Shorts and Stories fill from edge to edge, and runs 4 seconds at 30 frames per second. It arrives in 0.9 seconds, holds for 1.9 and clears in 1.2, so cue it a beat before the moment it labels. Export it as an MP4 for a timeline or a feed, a GIF where video will not embed, or a MOV with an alpha channel to lay it over footage with nothing behind it. Renders go up to 4K, and the free plan exports at 720p with a watermark.
Yes. The control and the finger move on identical timings, so the control reads as carried rather than sliding away from the touch. That is the difference between a swipe and a tap.
They place the screen as a Story rather than a post. Without them a vertical frame with a handle could be a Reel; with them it is unmistakably the Story surface.
