To avoid any in-app bug, glitches, or other issues that may cause video blur you must update the Instagram app frequently and install the latest version of the app.
To avoid in-app compression or stretching that can cause blurry video you must follow the Instagram Story dimension, quality, file size and other specifications. Let's give a quick glance at the ideal specifications for Instagram Stories.

Clearing up in-app cache may help you to get rid of blurry Instagram Stories by excelling the app's performance.
Press the Instagram app icon for long time until the menu appears > tap “App Info” to open the app settings > locate the storage related option such as “Clear Cache”, “Storage”, or “Storage & Cache” > select the “Clear Cache” option to remove temporary data without risking your account information.
If your video is shot in high quality and the Instagram high-quality video uploading option is disabled as default settings because of time consuming uploading process then you must enable the high-quality video uploading option.
After opening the Instagram app, move to your profile > select hamburger menu on the upper right side > select “Settings & Privacy” > select “Data usage and media quality” / “Media quality” > enable the “upload at highest quality” option.
Sometimes poor internet connection can lower down instagram story quality. In that case, all you have to do is to ensure that your device is connected to a strong internet connection. Otherwise, you can switch the internet connection from Wi-Fi to mobile data or the visa-versa depending on the quality of the available internet connection.
Instagram has built-in functions to add music, stickers, GIFs or other exciting elements to make your insta stories more appealing and engaging. However, sometimes this function leads to blurry video by decreasing the overall video quality. In that case, you have to stop using this in-app function.
Instagram provides data saver mode for the user's convenience of uploading content using limited data. However, this can cause poor Instagram story video quality. So to ensure high quality Instagram video you must disable the data server mode.
Recording video through Instagram app may degrade your Instagram story quality as Instagram captures video in lower resolution. Therefore, you should shoot your video using your phone's camera app instead of Insta app beforehand and then post the video on Instagram as a story.
Now, you can try any of the solutions mentioned above to fix your instagram story video quality after figuring out the exact reason for this.
