Meta AI Lets Users Completely Reimagine Photos and Videos with Easy Text Prompts and Preset Effects
Meta is rolling out its AI-powered photo and video editing tools directly inside Instagram Stories, allowing you to tweak, swap, or completely transform your content just by typing a simple text prompt.
### Restyle Your Stories
Want to erase that stray photobomber, add a crown, throw in a sunset, or just give your story a funky new vibe? Meta AI now makes all that possible—and yes, it even works with playful Add Yours stickers so friends can join in.
You’ll find the new tools under the **“Restyle”** menu, accessible at the top of Instagram Stories when you tap the paintbrush icon. From there, you can choose to “add,” “remove,” or “change” elements by simply typing what you want.
Meta gives examples like switching your hair color, adding props, or changing backgrounds.
There are also preset effects for quick edits: swap outfits, add sunglasses, or give your photo a watercolor style. For videos, you can make it snow or throw in flames. Note that video edits currently only work with presets. Once your creation is ready, just hit **“Done”** and share your story.
### Tips for Best Results
Meta suggests thinking about your prompts in terms of:
– **Subject:** “Add a crown on the girl’s head”
– **Lighting & Mood:** “Add dramatic lighting” or “light from a single paparazzi flash”
– **Composition:** “Place in the bottom left corner” or “in the background”
– **Style:** “Make photorealistic” or “film noir style”
– **Location:** “In Paris” or “outer space”
### Add Yours Stickers Make It Social
Add Yours stickers make it easy for friends to copy your edits or start a mini trend. Just swipe up on your restyled image before sharing to add the sticker. Others can then select their own image and apply the same edit.
### Making AI Editing More Accessible
Meta has offered AI edits on Instagram before, but only through a chatbot interface. Adding text prompt functionality directly inside Stories makes these tools way easier to use and far more accessible.
Keep in mind that using Meta AI on Instagram means you agree to Meta’s AI Terms of Service, which allow the platform to analyze your photos, videos, and more.

### AI Is Everywhere, For Better or Worse
Meta is clearly keeping up with the AI craze that’s sweeping the tech world. While some might consider these AI features gimmicks, the reality is that many people want exactly this kind of easy, creative control.
Google, OpenAI, and Meta are all building complex AI models, but not all are perfect or affordable for everyday users. Meta’s tools work well enough for casual users, which makes bringing Meta AI to Instagram Stories a smart move.
