Instagram is currently testing out some new features, and on some lucky users have been allowed to try them out! The new additions include...
Regram Button
Instagram finally has a regram button! This will allow you to regram someone else’s post directly from the app instead of using third party apps!
GIF For IG Stories
GIF search is one of the features that was included as well! The feature is said to be unstable now, but will be an interesting one that allows us to add GIFs in our insta story and posts.
Remixing Messages
You can now edit and doodle on photos that are sent to you via direct message! You can also send it to multiple friends and add photos of yourself into other photos!
Save Stories
This new feature allows you to automatically archive your stories after 24 hours! No more “I should have saved my story but now it’s gone” nightmares.
Closest Friend List
Your post and stories can now be shared to specific friends! Just turn on the feature before you post it, and only selected people in your close friend list will be able to see it!
Share To WhatsApp
Instagram is also testing a new feature that allows you to send posts or profiles with your friends through WhatsApp!
