Instagram notes, which became available globally a few months ago, now include a widely used option in stories. Starting today, users they will be able to post what they are listening to in their notes along with a short text, and your followers will be able to play a snippet of up to 30 seconds.
The function is similar to the option that BeReal has recently included, which allows you to see what your friends are listening to. The difference, yes, is that the new function of Instagram notes is not automatic. That is, unlike BeReal, where you can link your Spotify or Apple Music account so that it automatically detects what you are listening to on your respective platform, on Instagram it will be necessary to select the song manuallyin a similar way to how we do in the stories.
This function does nothing more than enhance the instagram notes that, as stated The VergeIt is widely used among the youngest. In fact, and in my personal case, many of the users I follow usually post the title of the track they are listening to, along with a musical note emoji to clarify that it is a song —for example, “🎶 Hits Different, Taylor Swift 🎶”—. The new feature, therefore, will make the experience when recommending songs or letting the user know what the user is listening to more intuitive by being able to play a fragment of the track.
The possibility of including songs from Instagram, we reiterate, will start to be available from today, albeit for a limited number of users. It will be rolled out to the whole world in the coming weeks.
Now you can also translate Instagram notes
This, yes, is not the only novelty that reaches the Instagram notes. The social network owned by Meta has also added A translator that can be activated by means of an option in those texts that do not match the language established in the app. In this way, if a user has Instagram in Spanish and sees a note in English, she can translate it by following a few simple steps.
Simply click on the note and then click on the ‘See translation’ option that appears at the bottom of the text.
Instagram, let’s remember, allows you to write notes of up to 60 characters, including emojis. These appear in the direct messages section.
