New Feature: Instagram Favorites
It’s non-stop with Instagram. They have one update coming behind the other, and they never seem to get tired. But that’s a good thing! They keep their platform constantly updated and users love it, they feel taken care of. One of the most recent features they want to implement is a “Favorites” system, and we’re going to briefly explain how it’s going to work.

Instagram Not Working Yesterday?
Just because Instagram is one of the most used social networks on the Internet as of today doesn’t mean that it’s perfect or flawless. Nothing is perfect! Yesterday lots of frustrated and confused users were complaining about how the app wasn’t letting them upload pictures or videos to their Stories. In fact, lots of people thought it was their own fault due to connectivity issues or something along those lines. But it was, in fact, Instagram’s fault.

Get an Appointment Through Instagram
Instagram never ceases to amaze us with their new big updates. They recently added one of the biggest features on the app: Instagram stories, more or less “copying” the Snapchat idea. But now they’re onto something quite different, something that will compete with other companies like Yelp or OpenTable.

New Instagram Multipost!
Instagram never ceases to amaze us with their new constant updates. Because not only to they keep their app nice, neat and bug-free, but they also add new features every few months to give it a fresh new look. Probably one of the things they got more complaints about was the “Snapchat copy” with the Stories, but now basically everyone is using them!

Implementing New Features
You might have heard of new features that were being considered a few months ago, but it was all pretty much in the air. Since a few days ago there are some Instagram users that have access to the new features they’re testing. And, if all goes well, they’ll be implementing them in the future.

Another Way to Save Instagram Pictures
Another Way to Save Instagram Pictures. People have been going insane with Instagram’s latest update. They’re copying lots of things from other social apps like Snapchat, and now they’ve also copied the disappearing stories you can send through DM. The issue here is that people found out that if you screenshot a video or picture, the user who sent it will get a notification. Creepy, right? Although Snapchat already did that before.

With all the chaos and rumors about Instagram’s new update. People didn’t realize that the only screenshots they would get notified about are screenshots of temporary DM pictures or videos. However, public images and videos can be screenshot without a problem. Either way, people have been trying ot figure out ways to save pictures in the most safest way possible. A few users figured out that by accessing the source code of the page where the image is, hit “Ctrl + F” and look for og:image. That way you’ll obtain the link of the picture. Which you can open on a different tab and save from there. However, this can only be done with a computer.
You can also copy the link and paste it on dinsta.com, which downloads Instagram pictures for you. There are a few more methods, but nothing definitive or actually fast and comfortable. But if Instagram starts notifying of screenshots on public images, then we’re pretty sure more methods are going to pop up. For now, it’s not that much of a problem.

Instagram Screenshot Notifications
Instagram Screenshot Notifications
Instagram has been integrating lots of different functions from other social apps. You might think that the only thing they’ve taken from Snapchat are the stories, but now they’ve also added a feature where people are notificated if you screenshot their stories, whether they’re public or sent through DMs.

Lots of people have gotten really nervous when figuring this out, because it’s something quite common that many people do, and you don’t actually see that the other person gets a notification. And sneaky as they are, Instagram didn’t warn anyone about this update. However, at the moment this only happens with accounts that have their setting set to private.It seems that in the future they want to do the same with public accounts and not just with stories, but with videos and pictures that are updated normally, and probably private conversations as well. Although at first you might think this is a bummer to you because you won’t be able to “stalk”, this is actually a security measure to see who is saving your Instagram content privately, And if you ever see your content uploaded somewhere else, you might have a slight idea of who it might have been
Never thought about that, right? Just think that Instagram wouldn’t be implementing this if it was only negative. There’s always a reason behind every update.
