TamilInstagram tests users share link in stories
30 June 2021, 6:00 pm
Facebook-owned photo-sharing platform Instagram is testing a new feature that will allow users to share links in stories through new linking stickers.
These stickers will operate the same way a swipe-up link does, except with a tap instead of a swipe, The Verge reported on late Tuesday.
People will also be able to respond to stories that include a sticker, which they can’t currently do with stories that have a swipe up.
For now, the test is small, and Vishal Shah, Instagram’s head of product, told the tech website that it is mostly to learn how people might take advantage of links.
The company will be watching for the types of links people post while keeping a particular eye on misinformation and spam.
