Instagram DMs get a creative boost with new features
Express yourself with photos and videos
Now you can let your creativity flow by customizing photos and videos directly within your DMs. Add a playful touch with stickers, personalize them with text and drawings, or even create unique stickers by cutting out elements from your own photos and videos. It’s a great way to add a personal flair to your conversations and react to your friends’ messages in a more engaging way.
Celebrate birthdays with new notes
Make your friends’ birthdays even more special with the new birthday Notes feature. When you post a Note on your birthday, your friends will see a festive birthday cake effect on your profile photo and in your DMs. Tapping on your Note will trigger a fun confetti animation, adding a touch of celebration to your special day. Also, when it’s a friend’s birthday, you’ll see a birthday cake effect on their profile photo and on their photo in DMs.
