Instagram, a popular photo sharing application, is reportedly testing a new feature which will allow the creators to share comments on their stories, including the comments on their posts or Reels. The Meta-owned platform has been constantly working on new features for the Creators to let them interact with their followers in a better way.
This followed Instagram head Adam Mosseri's announcement that the firm aims to make it simpler for artists to spotlight intriguing comments in a post on the 'IG updates' channel. Creators taking part in the test can highlight a comment by swiping it and tapping the "Add to story icon". The remark will show up next to the original post in the Stories feed. Mosseri, on the other hand, provided no information on the feature's public launch or the size of the test.

"We're testing the ability for public accounts to share comments from any public feed post or Reels to their stories. The idea is to help creators highlight important or interesting comments from fellow creators or fans," he said.
Meanwhile, Instagram is developing a feature that will let users record audio notes in the meantime. "We haven't started publicly testing anything yet, but we're working on the ability to create audio notes to share with your friends," Mosseri stated on his broadcast channel.
In December last year, Meta launched 'Notes' on Instagram, allowing users to post their ideas and see what their pals are up to. Users can publish brief posts of up to 60 characters using only text and emoticons, according to information provided when Meta debuted Notes.
Furthermore, Meta has launched the Web version of the recently launched text-based microblogging platform Threads. A month after releasing the Android and iOS versions, the company launched the web version.
