Weekly and Monthly Performance Summaries
The social media platform Instagram introduced “Recap,” a comprehensive dashboard that delivers weekly and monthly performance breakdowns directly to creators. This feature tracks essential metrics, including:
- post reach
- engagement from new audiences
- follower acquisition rates
The tool aims to make performance data more accessible without requiring creators to navigate to the traditional Insights section.
According to Instagram’s announcement, the feature will also include personalised recommendations highlighting improvement opportunities based on individual account performance patterns.
Milestone Achievement Notifications
The second addition, “Celebrations,” activates full-screen notifications when creators hit significant benchmarks such as follower count thresholds or when their Reels gain trending status. These achievement cards can be shared directly to Instagram Stories, allowing creators to showcase their progress with their audience.

Strategic Motivation and Engagement Approach
Instagram positions these updates as responses to creator feedback about needing better insights and encouragement throughout their content journey. The company acknowledges the challenges creators face and aims to provide tools that offer greater control over growth tracking while maintaining motivation levels.
These features essentially introduce gamification elements to the creator experience, potentially encouraging more frequent posting and sustained platform engagement. For Instagram, increased creator activity translates to more content flowing through their algorithm and recommendation systems.
Availability and Impact
Both features became available to all Instagram creators from yesterday, 9th of June 2025, marking another step in the platform’s ongoing efforts to retain and support its creator community. The rollout represents Instagram’s continued focus on creator economy tools as competition intensifies across social media platforms.
The implementation suggests Instagram’s recognition that transparent performance feedback and achievement recognition can drive creator retention and content production rates.
