What can I put in a fake Instagram chat?
Text messages, photos, voice messages, shared posts and reels, emoji reactions, story replies, big emoji on their own, and time separators. A new chat opens on the profile card, with followers, posts and two lines such as who follows whom.
Can I make a video of an Instagram chat that already has messages?

Which sizes work for Instagram stories, reels and posts?
Story 9:16 for stories and reels, Feed 4:5 and Square 1:1 for posts, all 1080 pixels wide. Screenshots are PNG images. Videos are MP4 with sound, or WebM on some browsers.
Can I change the time at the top of the screen?
Yes. Every frame shows an iPhone-style status bar with the time, signal bars, 5G and battery. Change the time in Settings, under Advanced, for example to 9:41.
Is fakedm.app made by Instagram?
No. fakedm.app is an independent tool for making mockups, and it is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Instagram or Meta. What you make is a mockup, not a real message: do not use it to impersonate anyone or to deceive people. See the acceptable use rules.
