Instagram could soon launch its own Twitter competitor app
For those unaware, Twitter is a Goliath in the social media market and is well known for its text based design. But this platform might soon face competition as Instagram could be working on a new rival app. According to a new report, the Meta owned social media brand is working on its very own app that will let users post text updates. These posts will supposedly have a character limit of up to 500 characters.
The report further adds that the users will be able to attach other forms of media like photos, links, and videos that are up to five minutes long apart from the text based posts. It will even allow you to engage with other text posts, give lives, replies, and reposts. With this alone, it is clear that the app is quite similar to Twitter, if not downright identical in terms of interface design. Interestingly, this news also arrives after the company released an update that let user’s post GIFs in comments.
Other notable details shared include, a centralized feed similar to Twitter and Instagram that shows recommended content and follower posts. This app will even arrive with close integration with the Instagram application as well as let you sync your Instagram account to avoid the hassle of setting up a new profile. In other words, one can even login to this new app with their existing account. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stick around for more updates.
