Not all Instagram posts have to be 100% original — in fact, some of the biggest accounts out there are dedicated to reposting other people's work. The best ones, of course, get permission before reposting anything, and always give proper credit.

There are several ways to repost videos you find on Instagram. The easiest way involves sharing the video to your Instagram Story, which will let your followers view it for a full day.

If you prefer a more permanent repost, you can save the video using a screen recording and then post it like any other Instagram post. This will put it on your profile alongside your other photos and videos.

There are also third-party apps like Repost, which convert someone else's Instagram post into one of your own.

Here are three ways to repost an Instagram video, using an iPhone or Android phone.

How to repost a video on Instagram by sharing it to your Story

1. Open the Instagram app and go to the post you want to share.

2. Directly beneath the post, tap the paper airplane icon. This will let you share it with someone via direct message, or repost it to your Story.

5. Tap "Send To" at the bottom of the screen, and in the pop-up, select "Share" beside "Your Story."

When you share a post using this method, anyone who views your Story can tap on it to go to the original posting.

How to repost a video on Instagram by screen recording it

If you want to post another user's video to your profile without downloading an extra app, you can simply record your phone's screen while the video post is playing.

With this method, you can crop, edit, and shorten the screen recording so it appears on your profile just as you want it to. However, make sure you don't crop out the username of the original poster, and be sure to credit them in your caption.

Both iPhone and Android phones have screen recording features, usually built right into the phone. Check out our articles on the subject:
