Navigation Update
Instagram just made multitasking a whole lot easier. You can now swipe seamlessly between Reels, messages, and the camera without needing to jump back to the home screen.
Why is this important?
This small but mighty update is designed to make your in-app experience more fluid and intuitive, especially if you’re creating content on the go. Whether you’re answering DMs, filming a Reel, or checking your latest edits, everything is now just a quick swipe away.
The goal? Keep your workflow flowing without breaking your creative rhythm. It’s faster, smarter, and feels more natural.
App Layout
Instagram’s giving your screen a little spring cleaning. The navigation bar has been refreshed for a cleaner, more streamlined layout that makes moving through the app feel smoother and more intentional.
The Plus Button (+)
One of the biggest changes? The plus button has packed its bags and moved to the top of your profile. Now, you can create Reels, posts, or Stories directly from your page. No need to bounce back to your home feed.
Reels & Messages
You’ll also notice that Reels and Messages now sit front and center, right where you need them most.
Transform your Stories
Instagram is rolling out AI-powered tools that make creating Stories faster, easier, and way more fun. From generating creative backgrounds to helping you write captions, these new features are designed to help your content stand out, without spending extra time in editing apps.
You can now use AI to reimagine your Story visuals, swap backgrounds, or even get help crafting the perfect caption. It’s all about turning your ideas into visuals in seconds.
The best part? These updates keep your creativity flowing while saving you time
