EFE.- Instagram announced today the launch of Notes, a new way to share short messages with text and emoticons, and said it is testing other new tools, Among them is Candid Stories, which offers users the ability to capture an image with both of their phone's cameras at the same time, similar to the BeReal app.
Notes, which is now available to all users, allows you to share messages of up to 60 characters with followers or groups of followers., explained Meta, owner of Instagram, in a statement.
These short texts will appear at the top of recipients' inboxes for 24 hours, and recipients can respond with traditional messages.
According to the social network, This tool responds to the desire of many users to have an easy way to share what they are thinking and start conversations, for example asking for recommendations or reporting something they are doing.
Additionally, Instagram plans to offer the ability to create new group profiles. so that several people can share images and videos among themselves, without them being seen by all their followers.
We suggest: Meta will remove news from Facebook if the US Congress passes a media law.

After posting their first Candid Stories, users will receive a daily reminder to share a new image.
According to the newspaper The Wall Street Journal, the function is similar to what the BeReal app offers, which has gained a lot of popularity recently with a focus on more spontaneous images and which include a capture made with both the front and rear cameras of the mobile.
