Meta, the parent company of Instagram, is introducing an array of Meta creative tools aimed at enhancing the Instagram experience. These exciting updates were unveiled during a product session held in Gurgaon, India, coinciding with Instagram’s 13th anniversary on October 6th.
Introducing the ‘Birthday’ Feature
Celebrating birthdays is a widespread tradition on Instagram, especially among younger users. To amplify this experience, Meta has introduced the ‘Birthday’ feature.
This new addition allows users to share their special day with friends and followers, fostering lively celebrations complete with stickers and confetti.
Enhancing Communication with Audio Notes and Selfie Video Notes
Notes have become a fundamental means of communication on Instagram, particularly favored by young users who engage in direct messaging. To enrich this experience, Meta has rolled out two innovative features:
Users can now leave voice recordings as Notes, adding a personal and expressive touch to their interactions.
This feature empowers users to capture short looping videos within their Notes, which remain visible for 24 hours, injecting dynamism into their interactions on the platform.
Greater Control with ‘Multiple Lists in Stories’
In response to user feedback, Meta has answered the call for the much-anticipated ‘Multiple Lists in Stories’ feature. This enhancement enables users to create various lists that go beyond just Close Friends.
Soon, users will have the ability to categorize their friends into different groups, whether they are close buddies or beloved family members. This feature provides users with greater control over who can view their Stories, enhancing the overall Instagram experience.
Coming Soon
Meta has announced that Meta Creative Tools will soon undergo testing and roll out. Instagram users can anticipate a more dynamic and vibrant platform, enriched with creative tools that facilitate self-expression and connectivity.
