Instagram introduced stories as a way to increase engagement on the site as the rate of sharing photos and videos had begun to decline but also as a way of combating the growth of Snapchat, which had become the default place for young people to share moments and photos.
So far it has been a relative success for them with one third of their 300 daily users utilising Instagram stories.
"More than 100 million people visit Explore every day to discover photos and videos from people they don't yet follow," the company said in a blog post.
"The new suggested Stories section highlights the most interesting Stories from across Instagram's vast global community - and like the rest of Explore, the Stories you'll see are personalised to your interests."
The changes have already been rolled out on the latest version of Instagram on Android and iOS. Catch up with the latest episode of Football Friday Live
