The option allows you to choose the media either from your phone’s camera roll or to click it directly from the camera itself. Select the ones that you want to post and click on “Upload”.
Not just that, you can also add filters to your media and decorate them the way you want, plus you can write some cool captions on them or add a GIF to them. This makes your posts and stories look even more cool and interesting.
