Instagram is dropping updates faster than you can say “algorithm,” and they’re packed with features that can seriously level up your content game. Here’s the latest on what’s new, all the trends and why it matters.
Instagram’s introduced a new “locked content” feature where followers can unlock exclusive posts by doing something like entering a code from your caption. This is a genius way to boost engagement without feeling forced – think secret drops, exclusive behind-the-scenes, or subscriber-only perks. Perfect for launches, limited offers, or just building that VIP vibe.
You can now watch Reels at double speed by simply holding the top right corner while watching. It’s a slick way to speed through slow-mo moments, get to the juicy part of the content, reveal messages faster, or just keep your audience on their toes. This one’s for the impatient scrollers who still want all the vibes.
Finally! You can now repost other people’s Reels straight to your profile, just like a retweet on Twitter or a repost on LinkedIn. It’ll show up in a new Reposts section, making it easier to share collabs, give shoutouts, or just vibe-check your favourite creators. Plus, it’s a great way to stay active on content without burning out.
Instagram is levelling up the inbox game with updated DMs – you can now schedule DMs, pin up to 3 chats, and enjoy a cleaner, sleeker inbox layout. It’s basically like Marie Kondo just popped in and organized your digital life! Prioritize those important conversations and keep the chaos under control.
New Monthly Recap features are here for creators, dropping personalized stats on your content’s performance each month. It breaks down what to post next, what your audience loves, and even when they’re most active – basically a cheat sheet for staying relevant and riding those viral waves.
The Edits App is dropping features that will make your content life way easier:
