Instagram recently announced an exciting update to its direct messaging (DM) features that has the potential to transform and improve the way we communicate. The new features give users more flexibility and control over their conversations, resulting in a richer and more personal communication experience.
Edit messages on Instagram
One of the most important innovations is the ability to edit messages up to 15 minutes after they have been sent. This feature is particularly useful for correcting typos or adjusting wording without having to send a new message.
The user can simply press and hold the sent message and select “Edit” to make changes.
Pinning chats
Another important feature is the ability to pin up to three group or 1:1 chats. This option allows users to save important chats to the top of their inbox, making access to these chats much easier.
To pin a chat, swipe left or tap the chat and select “Pin”.
Individual read receipts
Customizing read receipts also offers a new level of privacy and control. Users can now decide whether they want to enable or disable read receipts for all chats or just specific chats.
This setting can be adjusted at any time in the account settings under “Messages and replies”.
Improved answers and topic customization
Instagram has also created the ability to reply to messages with stickers, GIFs, videos, photos and voice messages, making the exchange even more interactive and personal.
Meanwhile, users can also save their favorite stickers for quicker access, making it easier to provide a timely and appropriate response.
Instagram also now offers the ability to personalize chats with topics. From planned dates to relaxed conversations with friends, there's a theme to personalize your chats for every mood.
Conclusion
The latest updates to Instagram direct messages not only bring improved functionality, but also more personalization and flexibility to our conversations. They enable users to make their communication more efficient and expressive.
