Facebook-owned Instagram proclaimed a modification to its 'stories' feature which allows users to directly repost a story they are tagged in, as theirs.

"When someone mentions you in their story, you receive a notification in your 'Direct message' thread with that person. Now you'll see an option to add that content to your own story," Instagram wrote in a blog post late on Thursday.

The new feature @mention sharing is applicable only to public accounts and is available as a part of Instagram version 48 on Android and iOS, formally iPhone OS. The original poster's username will appear automatically when a story is reposted on a different account.

The users will as well have choices and options to rotate, scale, position and to add creative tools such as text and stickers to the reposted story, Instagram added.
