Making ads more interchangeable across platforms saves marketers the headache of having to remake each piece of their content to fit individual specifications, but it can also dilute the aesthetic of a particular app. Adapting Facebook ads as brand Instagram stories risks diminishing the in-the-moment quality that's made the feature such a success.
