The new Instagram feature is similar to Twitter’s feed due to the limited text on Notes. However, Notes are a bit short posts of up to 60 characters using just text and emojis while Twitter’s maximum 240-character limit. Soon after Elon Musk’s plans to increase the 240 characters limit to 4,000 characters on Twitter, Instagram released the new Notes feature to the users.
If you would like to experience the new notes feature, here are the ways you can follow. Firstly, you need to open your inbox, select the followers you follow back or people on your Close Friends list, then you can share your note at the top of your direct messages. Your followers will see your note at the top of their inbox for 24 hours, like stories.
The new feature also allows you to communicate with your followers. They can reply to your notes as DMs in your inbox. Thanks to the Notes feature, it is easy for you to get in touch with your followers. Instagram is also testing new features in Stories like Group Profiles and Candid Stories.
