3 New Features Instagram Wants You to Know About

Heads up, Instagram users!

Are you an avid user of the mobile photo sharing app Instagram? Here are some of their newest updates that will level up your Instagram gaming.

1. You can now zoom in photos on your feed!

 

 

As one of the most requested features on Instagram, the app has made the “Zoom” feature possible where it lets you pinch to zoom on photos and videos in feed, on profiles, and on Explore. The said feature is available for Instagram on iOS, and will be available on Android in the coming weeks.

2. Add color to your Instagram stories!

 

 

Getting tired of the same old white-colored text? Worry no more as one of Instagram Stories’ newest updates lets you add color to your text! Simply swipe the colors above the keyboard to see more, or you can also tap and hold a circle to select a custom color.

 

3. Hate ‘hate comments?’ Filter them out!

To make your Instagram account free from inappropriate comments, you can choose to keep negative and unnecessary comments on your posts at bay. To do this, update your Instagram app and click Settings > Comments > Hide Inappropriate Comments. You can also use the keyword moderation tool to list down the words you think are inappropriate and offensive. That way, you’ll have a hate-free Instagram account!
