Instagram's offline mode for Android is official

Image
We've known about Instagram's plans to add offline capabilities to its app for a couple of months,  and yesterday the news was made official at the Facebook Developer Conference (F8). Instagram is testing offline mode in regions with limited bandwidth to make the app more approachable and adapted to the demands of users there. According to the company, 80% of its community is outside of the US and many of these users are on lesser optimized networks, so making sure the app works when there's slow or no connectivity became a crucial feature to implement. The way this works is when you're offline, you can still view the preloaded content and several of the app's sections (feed, explore, personal profile, previously visited profiles, etc) and you can interact with them. Liking, commenting, saving, following, and unfollowing, all of these can be done while offline then scheduled to apply when you're back online.   The first time you perform any action offl...

Instagram Stories now has more users than Snapchat

Image
Once upon a time, Instagram was just for sharing photos, mostly of food.  But over the past year or so, the app greatly expanded in functionality. Live streaming is now supported , multi-photo posts have been added, and the  app now has Snapchat-like disappearing photos and videos. Back in August, Instagram cloned Snapchat's 'Stories' feature, allowing users to post short snippets of their activity that disappear after 24 hours. In a post about new stickers, Instagram revealed that over 200 million people use the Stories feature every day. Engadget pointed out that Snapchat only reported 158 million users in its IPO filing in February, meaning Instagram Stories has more active users than Snapchat. This should be good news for both Instagram and Snapchat users. Instagram will certainly continue to make the feature better, and maybe Snapchat will become motivated to fix the buggy Android app (like they keep saying they will do). Source: Instagram

Instagram Direct takes a page from Snapchat with disappearing photos and videos

Image
Instagram Direct was added a while back to allow you to have conversations with other Instagram users in a more private setting.  Now, Instagram is adding some features you're probably familiar with from Snapchat—you can send images and videos that self-destruct after being viewed. Regular photos can still be sent as well, though. To send disappearing messages, simply swipe over to direct from feed and tap the blue camera icon. Then, snap a photo or record a video. When you send it, your friends in the conversation will be able to view it once, and then it's gone. This was available in Instagram previously, but it's now part of Direct. Permanent photos and videos can still be added to the conversation as well. For that, you have to use the gallery icon on the right of the text field. Of course, the direct conversations support text and reshares from the main feed, and they'll appear in the same thread with the disappearing media. Instagram says this is just th...

Instagram 10.12 allows you to save live video after broadcasting it

Image
Instagram Live is one of several ways to live stream from your phone,  but it always had one catch - you couldn't save the broadcast after it was over. Both Periscope and YouTube mobile streaming support this feature. Thankfully, Instagram now allows you to save live video after the broadcast is over.       After your broadcast has finished, tapping the new Save button in the top-right corner will save a copy of the video to your device. That's pretty much it. You can get Instagram 10.12 from the Play Store at the link below.

Social media in general can bring about some great conversations, but there are always those who like to ruin good things. So, the Facebook-owned company is adding some new tools and controls to help users feel safer and to keep the platform a place for self-expression.

How to chat on Instagram

Image
Instagram is not only meant for looking at images, and watching videos lol. You can chat on instagram also. I believe most people have a clue about what am saying But to those that don't I would teach you how to do that. Instructions: • To Chat privately on Instagram is fairly simple. Open your Instagram app and click on the logo that looks like an archive on the top right of the screen. • The next step is to press on the "+" button on the top right to start a new chat. The app will ask you whether you want to send a message or a photo or video. Once you have clicked on "Send message", select the person who you want to send the direct message to and start typing. It's simple! But one setback about this is that instagram doesn't save last chats. It only shows the last statement you made with the person you chatted with.
