Meta just dropped a brand new feature called Instants (and yes, it’s basically Instagram’s version of a Snapchat streak) 👀👇
Tucked away in the bottom right corner of your DM tab, Instants is all about sharing raw, real-life moments instead of a curated aesthetic.
How it works:
📸 Point & Shoot: You can only take real-time photos using the in-app camera. No uploading from your camera roll.
🚫 Zero Edits: No heavy filters, no stickers, and no aesthetic tuning. Just a quick caption and you're good to go.
⏳ View-Once & Vanish: Just like a classic Snap, once your friends open it, it’s gone forever. If unopened, it expires after 24 hours.
🔒 Anti-Screenshot: To keep things low-pressure, it blocks screenshots and screen recordings completely.
It’s a dedicated space just for mutual followers and your Close Friends list.
Have you spotted the photo-stack icon in your DMs yet? Let me know if you’re using it! 👇
