New features have been introduced in Instagram DMs to enhance connectivity among users.
Message Translations
Instagram now offers a message translation feature that allows users to communicate across language barriers. By holding down on a message in a different language and tapping “Translate,” users can view the translated text directly in their conversation, facilitating easier communication with friends and family worldwide.
Music Sharing
Users can now share music directly in DMs without leaving the chat. By accessing the sticker tray and selecting the ‘Music’ option, users can send a 30-second preview of any song from the Instagram audio library, making it simple to share musical interests with friends.
Scheduled Messages
The ability to schedule messages allows users to send texts at specific times, ideal for special occasions or reminders. To schedule a message, users can hold down the send button, select the desired date and time, and finalize the scheduling process.
Pinned Messages
Instagram has enhanced its pinning feature, enabling users to pin specific messages, images, or memes at the top of any chat. This allows for easy access to important conversations or favorite content, with a limit of three pinned messages per conversation.
Group Chat QR Codes
A new QR code feature simplifies adding friends to group chats. Users can generate a personalized QR code for their group chat, which new members can scan to join instantly. Admins can refresh the QR code at any time, maintaining control over group membership.
These updates aim to improve the overall user experience in Instagram DMs, making it easier to stay connected with friends and family.
