In December last year, Instagram confirmed that it is bringing back the chronological feed in 2022, it dumped almost six years ago. It’s 2022, and it’s also time for us to start using the Instagram feed in chronological order. And if you like the algorithm-based feed, it will be there too. Here are the details you should know.
Instagram’s Adam Mosseri took to Twitter to announce the “Chrono update.” It is revealed that there will now be two more feed options: Favorites and Following in addition to the algorithmic Home feed.
📣 Chrono Update 📣Today, we’re launching two new chronological views for your Instagram Feed – Following and Favorites. These options give you more choice and control over what you see in the app. Let me know what you think 👇🏼 pic.twitter.com/MBmPUUoGCV— Adam Mosseri (@mosseri) March 23, 2022
These two new options will work side-by-side with the Home feed, which will be a default. And this is where the problem arises. Whatever feed option you choose, you will have to switch over to it up each time you open the Instagram app. The app will be set back to the personalized feed option (with recommendations too) whenever you get out of it.
