While the Notes feature on Instagram appears to be a less popular
medium of interaction in the app, it is actually not as underused among teen
users according to Meta’s insights. And so it makes sense why Instagram isn’t
taking a break from testing and rolling out all kinds of updates for Notes.
One of these latest updates has been uncovered by app
researcher Alessandro Paluzzi, who shared a sneak peek of a new addition called
‘Profile Notes.’ Although Instagram itself hasn’t revealed anything about
Profile Notes, it is easy to predict that these Notes would appear on users’
profiles.
According to further details, the option would enable users
to post Notes on each other’s profiles, however only people that a user follows
back will be allowed to post Notes on the user’s profile. Additionally, these
Notes can be removed manually and will automatically expire after three days.
Previously, Instagram rolled out Inbox Notes that users
could exchange among each other in their private message chats. The social
media company has also been testing Notes on feed posts as well as Reels. Profile
Notes could be considered as further expansion of Notes, allowing users to have
more variety in options that facilitate engagement.
