In this guide by AP News, we’ll break down what Monthly Recap is, how to use it, and why it matters for Indian users who create content regularly.

Instagram Monthly Recap: What Is It?

The Monthly Recap feature is a personalized summary that shows how your Instagram page performed in the past month. It includes:

Most liked and shared posts
Number of new followers
Best day and time your followers engaged
Insights on reels, stories, and posts
A simple graphic with key numbers

This is Instagram’s way of helping creators learn from their own content.

✅ It saves time. No need to check each post manually.

✅ It highlights what kind of content your followers love.

✅ It helps you plan better for the next month.

✅ It’s useful for brands, influencers, students, and business owners alike.

Who Can Use Monthly Recap?

Influencers: See which reels or stories brought the most likes or DMs.
