New features are coming to Instagram, and they're doing so to ensure the social network stays relevant ahead of other apps.
Instagram aims to remain the quintessential photo and video social network, even if it means copying features from other apps. In recent weeks, we've seen BeReal take the top spot as the social network of the moment, shifting the popularity scales in its favor.
Instagram's response to this situation is to launch a series of features that are a near-perfect replica of the best features of social networks and apps. Three new features were announced today: groups, Candid Stories and NotesLet's take a closer look at how these new Instagram features work.
Candid Stories It is the functionality that looks directly at BeReal. This feature can be translated as a kind of real stories And, it aims for users to show their followers what they are doing at a specific moment and, above all, to be authentic when performing this action.
The operation is identical to that of BeReal, Users receive a notification telling them to capture the moment they are in. and post it to their stories so other users who have posted this type of story can see it. It's currently in the testing phase.
The next feature that has been integrated into Instagram They are the new groups. This feature allows multiple users to create posts or stories within a profile shared by multiple people., making what is published become part of what could be considered a kind of community within Instagram.
Groups now offer the ability to create shared collections among multiple users, allowing them access to all content saved within these collections. The last feature is the Notes and, the truth is, it is something that seems strange within an application like Instagram where
These notes can have a maximum length of 60 characters and They are published in the message tray, and they also last for one published day or 24 hours.. It is strange since it is too similar to the states found in WhatsApp, now we will have to see if this feature It works and users use it on a daily basis in a normal way.
