Instagram is expanding AI age verification for Teen Accounts to enroll more teens. Parents will receive notifications about the importance of accurate age reporting and tips for verifying their teens' ages.

New AI technology will help identify suspected teen accounts and place them in these settings, encouraging parents to talk to their teens about age verification.
Instagram has introduced several new features for DMs to enhance communication. Users can now translate messages in different languages, share music directly within chats, and schedule messages for specific times.

These updates aim to make it easier for users to stay connected with friends and family globally.
