Instagram is one of the most used apps around the world and that’s mostly because of the new features that this app adds every day. On this occasion, we will talk to you about a new function that Instagram is testing on certain mobile phones. The feature is called Echo on Instagram.
If you are interested in knowing more about this curious function, how to use it and when to see it on your mobile, make sure to read this article that we prepared especially for the lovers of this app.
What is the new Instagram function Echo?
You’ve probably already seen it on live broadcasts on Instagram, like when someone makes a comment and it goes up on the screen for everyone to see, well it’s the same echo, but for stories. That means if someone posts a story, you can echo it, write your comment, and now everyone else who sees that story can see your comment under the post.
If you’re the creator of the story and someone comments on it, you’ll get a notification in the app, such as when they like or leave a comment. As it’s your story, you have full control over what comments appear, meaning if someone leaves a comment you don’t like, you can delete it and it won’t appear next to your Instagram story.
How to use Echo on Instagram?
It is important to mention that this function is still being tested by the Instagram app, that is, it can only be used by a certain group of people. If you want to know if you’re one of the chosen ones, all you have to do is update the Instagram app and submit a story to see a happy face emoji appear under the stories.
If it shows up, it means you can leave an echo in that story. All you have to do is tap on the smiley face emoticon and type your desired echo. It’s that simple and so much fun, helping you connect in a whole new way.
