Instagram iOS repeated Stories problem has been solved 

• Some users are having to re-watch all of someone’s stories before being able to see new ones.
• Since Monday, numerous Verge employees have been afflicted by the problem.
• Reddit users have complained that the same thing is occurring to them.

Instagram delivered an update to the App Store on Wednesday morning that appears to have fixed the problem. If you’re having problems, check for updates and make sure your app is up to date, which is version 239.1. The update’s notes only state, “The latest version contains bug fixes and performance improvements.”

but Verge workers and others on social media claim that it has resolved the issue of repeated Stories.

In an email to The Verge, Meta spokesperson Christine Pai stated that the firm is in the process of expanding, “aware that some people are having trouble accessing Instagram Stories.”

Pai apologised for the disruption and stated that Instagram is “working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible.”

The source of the problem appears to be that Instagram forgets where you left off while viewing someone’s story. For example, if one of my friends has five stories and I look at four of them before swiping away, I should see their fifth story the next time I tap on their symbol. Instead, each time I want to see the story, Instagram forces me to go back through the four I’ve previously viewed. When someone adds a new story to their feed, the issue occurs as well.

The exact number of people that have been impacted is unclear. Many people are saying that they have to replay stories on Twitter, but Instagram isn’t trending as much as I’d anticipate if a major function was broken for everyone.
