The Instagram Note feature, initially introduced in December, allows users to write any message within a 60-character limit. The Notes section, which provides users with an alternative way to express themselves, will now host a new feature.
Instagram takes users back to the past
With its new feature, Instagram Notes takes users back in time. Users can now add a 30-second clip of a song and a brief description alongside their status updates. Followers can listen to the songs by clicking on this section.
Instagram’s introduction of this feature brings back memories of the MSN days. With MSN’s “What am I listening to?” feature, you could actively share what you were listening to with your friends through Winamp or Windows Media Player. With Instagram’s Notes section, individuals can now share excerpts from their favorite songs with their followers.
The new Note feature aims to attract more users to this service on the social media platform. The goal is for this service, which has been predominantly used by young users so far, to be used more frequently in the near future. Instagram also announced that a translation button will be added below the Notes section for posts in other languages, thus eliminating the language barrier in the Notes feature.
The Notes feature is just a small part of Meta’s new approach, where the company invests in text-based products to compete with platforms like Twitter. The new application, codenamed “Project 92,” is expected to be an independent app and may be unveiled at the end of the month.
Instagram’s Note feature offers users a new option to express themselves. The recently added song addition feature will evoke a sense of nostalgia for users.
