A popular social media site, Instagram keeps adding new features and changes. The app recently added a “Notes” feature that lets users share thoughts in their DM section for 24 hours, with a limit of 60 characters, and only followers can see them.
What Do “Notes” do?
According to Instagram, the new “Notes” feature gives you a private place to share short text updates with certain people. Those people can then reply to your updates using Instagram messaging. It only lets you share one note at a time; if you share more than one note at a time, the one you just shared will be deleted.
How do you use the Notes function?
You can read and share notes from your friends and followers in your DM section. To share your letter, do these things:
1 – On your phone, open the Instagram app.
2 – Go to the section called DM.
3 – Tap on the option Your Note, which is at the top and has your profile picture.
4 – Tap “Share what’s on your mind…” and type up to 60 characters.
5 – Under the “Share with” tab, you can choose to share your note with people who follow you and people who follow you back.
6 – Click the Share button in the top right corner.
For 24 hours, everyone will be able to see your note at the top of the chat list. You can delete your message anytime by tapping it once and then choosing “Delete the note.” When someone replies to your note, you can start a private chat with that person.
Before, only a few users were allowed to test the feature, but now everyone can use it.
