The Instagram Hashtag Generator is inside Preview app.
The goal is to help you increase your reach and grow your Instagram:
Each single hashtag has been researched and hand-picked:
- There are no random, super general hashtags
- There are no banned hashtags that could damage your account
Hashtags are a way for people to find you and for the Instagram algorithm to understand who to show your posts to.
With that in mind, each hashtag group will give you a mix of 4 types of hashtags:
- Popular hashtags (to signal to the Instagram algorithm what your post is about)
- Niche hashtags (to increase your reach)
- Community hashtags (to connect you with awesome Instagram communities)
- Brand hashtags (if there are some for your industry and to help you get featured on other people’s accounts)
If you don’t have it yet, click here to download Preview.
Then, just follow these 3 steps:
1. Upload a post
Upload a new post:
- Press on the “+” button
- “Photos/Videos”
- Choose your photo / video
Done.
The post will appear in your Preview feed.
2. Open your caption
To open your caption:
- Press on the post
- Press on the “Caption” button
3. Press on “Find Hashtags” to use the Instagram Hashtag Generator
Press on “Find Hashtags”:
The Instagram Hashtag Generator will appear.
Here is what you can do:
Scroll through the hashtag groups. Or type a keyword in the search bar to find hashtags you want (for example: “Travel”).
Press “Add All” to add all the hashtags in your caption:
Or:
Press on one hashtag only to add only that one in your caption:
Tip: Mix and match hashtags from different categories. For example, let’s say you are a travel blogger and you are sharing a photo of a sunset. You can search for the category “Sunset” and add some sunset-related hashtags in your caption too. You will create your own hashtag list with “Travel” hashtags and “Sunset” hashtags.

Thanks so much for this feature, this will honestly make finding hashtags so much easier. ????????
Hey Sarah! Thanks for coming to the other side of Insta ???? Good to see some (very) familiar faces around here.
Alex, how many hashtag groups are we allowed? I saved a few groups and can’t find them anymore!
Hi! Can you please send us an email at [email protected] ?
After clicking “Find”, I searched for keyword “engineer” but it didn’t show any result. That means we have to use hashtags only displayed by this app which are not related to my keyword?
Hi Rajan! We’re trying to cover as many categories as possible. We will be updating the Hashtag Finder as we go.
For now, you can save your own hashtag groups in Preview. Have a look: https://thepreviewapp.com/easiest-way-save-hashtag-groups-instagram/ .
You can use any hashtags you want.
Also have a look at this article about how to find good Instagram hashtags for your specific keyword: https://thepreviewapp.com/7-tricks-find-instagram-hashtags-grow-account/.
Hi Alex
Once we have searched the hashtags, uploaded them and scheduled our post for a particular time, do we still need to then upload the post to intagram? Or is there a way it uploads automatically with the caption? So far I’ve had to physically move the photo and caption over to instagram manually.
Hello Jonny! Yes, you need to manually upload the post to Instagram – which is a good thing because Instagram doesn’t allow any apps or websites to automatically post for you. It’s against their Policy and can get your account banned, blocked or penalized.
We don’t want that to happen to anyone. Preview follows Instagram’s guidelines.
Also, just in case you didn’t see: when you send your post to Instagram, Preview will automatically copy the caption and hashtags to your keyboard. You can just hit “paste” in your caption on Instagram.
Your tutorial screenshots do not match mine. I don’t have a speech bubble or the icon to the left of that. Help? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b89722c943c1c2583b53235452d9d6bb4257e0bd47379f8089eac4acd9760d89.png
Press the “+” button on the top right corner of your screen to add new photos in Preview. Then select a photo and press the speech bubble.
The photos you are selecting are photos that have already been posted on Instagram.
Instagram doesn’t allow us to edit photos that have already been posted.
Use Preview app to plan your feed in advance and prepare your caption and hashtags.
Here’s the step-by-step tutorial on how to use Preview:
