Instagram has a new set of features for you, mainly for Stories and DMs. The social media app now has Candid Stories, which works on the premise of the BeReal app, among other things. Check out what’s new on Instagram.
Instagram is testing Candid Stories, which will allow you to post a story of the ‘real’ moment and will be shown to those who also post a candid. Much like it happens on the popular BeReal app, you will get daily notifications to post a candid story. The notification can also be switched off and you can just post one via the Stories camera.
For those who don’t know, Instagram was earlier testing the feature in select regions, including India. Instagram says, “During testing, we learned that people liked having a lightweight, easy way to share what’s on their mind and start conversations. From asking for recommendations to sharing what they’re up to, Notes give people a casual and spontaneous way to express themselves and connect with each other.“
The ‘Add Yours’ sticker for Instagram Stories is also getting a new update, which will allow others to participate and invite more people by selecting the ‘Pass it on’ option.
