Instagram and its hidden features

Instagram remains one of the leading platforms among social networks not only in Russia, but also in other countries. Working and building a business, finding followers and sharing creativity - all this is quite possible on this network. You just need to want it, you can achieve anything. But some users do not use the full potential of the features. The Instaplus service will help you reveal many of the secrets of the platform and teach you the correct sequence of actions.

↑ "Killer" Tik-Tok

We're talking about Instagram Reels, the social media giant's new trump card. In short, these are short videos like Tik-Tok. Since August 2020, there has been talk about this feature, but few people know what Reels actually is. And all because it has not yet officially arrived in Russia (and many other countries).

A “Reels” button will appear next to “Story” and “Live”. Videos of 3-15 seconds with music and effects are aimed at dynamic scrolling, but are significantly inferior to the tools in Tik-Tok. This was known even at release. Instagram, however, stated that it considers this area a priority and is now testing it in different countries, but not in the Russian Federation.

Let us immediately note that the music library and editor in Reels are still somewhat poorer than in Tik-Tok. So today it’s difficult to say whether the new feature will be able to compete with popular videos on a competing platform. But Instagram is an industry giant that will definitely invest serious money in the development of the new service. So it is quite possible that another market redistribution awaits us. You can find out more information on this issue here.

↑ What Instagram is Hiding

The social giant has a large number of secrets and tricks that the mass user ignores. For example, in the spring of 2021, Instagram made it possible to save and work with drafts. This is usually needed to return to editing stories after saving. For example, you might want to continue working on a video later without losing it. Instagram itself will offer to save the material in drafts when you try to exit Stories. It’s easier to understand this process with Instaplus.

The blog also contains articles on other relevant topics related to Instagram. News appears in a timely manner and allows you to keep up-to-date with brands and new mechanisms. Useful information will help you set up your account. So, one article talks about an ambassador and his activities on a social network, another talks about influencer marketing and business on Instagram.

So go to the blog, set up a business or upgrade your personal account - all this is quite accessible to every user.
