Instagram is an application that has evolved a lot since Facebook acquired it. With the passage of time it has been adding a multitude of new functions. Thanks to this, its popularity has grown remarkably, managing to steal many users from Snapchat. The application will be updated soon and it will bring us the most interesting news. What news does Instagram bring?

Instagram will add GIFs and stickers and last minute connection

The update rate on Instagram has accelerated a lot in recent times. So we have much more frequent updates. In the next one, which is not yet known when it will arrive, GIFs and stickers are expected to gain special prominence. Although they are not the only ones.

Hmm.. seems Instagram will support GIFs from GIPHY (for Stories), Stickers and Last seen in Direct like WhatsApp (and other…).

WhatsApp has Status (Stories) and Stickers like Instagram.

WhatsApp and Instagram have very similar features.

News on Instagram

The first of the novelties is the arrival of GIFs in the Stories. Users will be able to use GIFs in them. Although it is not yet known when this news will arrive in the application. This will be possible thanks to the integration with GIPHY in the social network. It's not the only change related to stories in the app. The stickers also reach the Stories.

Additionally, changes to the private message system are expected. It is going to introduce something that WhatsApp users know very well. The last connection time will also be visible on Instagram when you send a private message to another user. Thus, we can see if they do not respond because they have not connected or for lack of desire.

Instagram continues to evolve in a remarkable way. The application takes time making improvements and growing remarkably. These developments, which we do not yet know when they will be available, promise to continue with these improvements in the application.
