Instagram Tool I JUST Discovered - Blog 2
Maybe I'm just slow at learning social media or maybe Instagram just recently came out with this, but considering that I am a newbie with my iPhone and don't read Instagram updates when they get installed, I was really shocked to figure out this feature all by myself! And I have been on Instagram for many years now so I would consider myself pretty familiar with the platform.
Okay so the feature I am talking about is when you press and hold someone's handle (either in your feed or in your notifications). But not just holding on the handle for a while, I mean like you have to like press down and the phone will vibrate as it brings up the account's details (including their profile pic, some recent photos, and their following/follower info). And what's even cooler is that if you drag your finger up the screen it will show you options like follow, view profile, or message (even if you already follow someone).
Not that this tool is necessary life changing to how I use Instagram but I found it to be super cool and I thought I would share just in case some of you haven't discovered it either! It's definitely not something I hear being talked about at all. This tool doesn't necessarily add value to me but someone could find it useful to get to an Instagram page faster, especially if they spend a lot of time on social media (like a brand or professional).
Below is a pic showing what I am talking about!
Let me know if you guys already knew this or if it's new to you too!

Definitely had no clue about this! Instagram is always coming up with great new features and updates, like the stories, so it will be interesting to see what sort of changes they have in the future.
