Vimini and Instagram

Post your Story. Vimini saves the visit.

You already post where you eat. Connect your Instagram username once, mention @viminiapp in your food Stories, and every visit lands in Vimini without opening the app.

Your Stories, saved as viminis

Connect in a minute

Add your Instagram username in Vimini and confirm it with the 6-digit code we send you by Instagram message.

Tag us, and it’s saved

Mention @viminiapp in a Story and Vimini creates a vimini for that restaurant. All that is left is your rating.

It finds the place

Vimini uses the location sticker first. Without it, it looks at your caption, the text in your Story, or a message you send with the name of the place.

How automatic viminis work

  1. 1

    Verify your username

    Open Settings, enter your Instagram username, and type the code you receive in your Instagram messages. If you don’t see it, check your message requests.

  2. 2

    Mention @viminiapp in your Story

    Post a Story from the restaurant, mention viminiapp, and add the location sticker. Forgot the sticker? Send Vimini a message with the name of the place.

  3. 3

    Add your rating

    Vimini notifies you when the vimini is saved and reminds you to rate it. On iPhone you can rate straight from the notification. Imported viminis also wait for you on your Home.

Automatic vimini questions

Do I need to log in with Instagram?

No. You only add your username and confirm it with a code sent by Instagram message. Vimini only looks at the Stories where you mention @viminiapp.

What if Vimini is not sure which restaurant it is?

It asks you to confirm the restaurant from a short list of matches before saving the vimini.

What if I forget the location sticker?

Send Vimini a message with the name of the place after posting, and it is added to your viminis.

Can I post my vimini on Instagram?

Yes. Use Share on Instagram on any vimini to create a Story image.
