Friends' stories are displayed above the news feed in the form of round icons. There is also a button for adding your own publication. If friends share something new, their photo will be highlighted in blue.
You can record a video up to 12 seconds long or use a photo. Stickers, emoticons, drawing tools and a text editor will help you add publications of new colors.
The story can be sent via private messages or to the news feeds of selected friends. VKontakte offers to comment and discuss the publication in messages. The author of the story will know the total number of views and the list of friends who have seen the photo or video.
Recording stories is available in mobile apps for Android and iOS.
If you don't like this feature and you want to remove stories from the feed, then here is a little instruction how to do it.
