Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing an issue with the Gallery block in ManyChat on Instagram DM.

  • In the flow preview inside ManyChat, everything looks correct: I can see two cards side by side in the gallery.

  • However, when I test it on my own phone (Instagram DM), only the first card is visible. The second card never appears, and there is no swipe option.

What I’ve already tried:

  1. Made sure both cards are inside the same Gallery block.

  2. Each card has a title, subtitle, image, and at least one button.

  3. Reduced the text length in titles and descriptions to avoid character limits.

  4. Used images with the recommended size (square 1080×1080).

  5. Tested with different links (shorter links as well).

  6. Refreshed permissions between Instagram and ManyChat.

  7. Checked Instagram account type (it is set as a Business account).

But the problem persists: Preview shows 2 cards, Instagram DM only shows 1 card.

Has anyone else run into this?

  • Is this a known limitation of Instagram DM?

  • Do I need to change any special settings in ManyChat or Meta Business Suite?

  • Could it be device-specific?

Any advice or confirmed solutions would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Thanks in advance!

Hi Deniz, I have exactly the same issue….Instagram is only showing me one card! That’s a big problem for my clients, they can’t show their full services….


Hi, I’m also facing exactly the same issue — Instagram is only showing me one card. This is a major problem for my clients since they’re unable to showcase all their services properly.
