On Wednesday, Facebook announced plans to integrate DM (Direct Message) or Instagram inbox, with Facebook Messenger, the Facebook inbox, allowing communication in separate applications. Simply put, a Facebook Messenger user will soon be able to chat with someone on Instagram without having to download the Instagram app and vice versa. Users will have control over whether they want to receive such cross-platform messages. The update will also bring a handful of new Messenger-inspired features to Instagram DM, which we see below:
- Update selection
When the update is available to you, you will be presented with this pop-up message on Instagram, which allows you to select or opt out.
- Vanish Mode (Disappearance)
As the name suggests, "vanish mode" allows you to automatically delete messages after the other person has read them, or after you have closed the conversation, more or less as Snapchat conversations work.
- Watch Together
The new "Watch Together" option allows you to tune in with your family and friends during a "video call". This includes IGTV, Facebook Watch, TV shows, movies and, soon, Reels.
- Message controls
You have control over who can send you messages directly, how those messages are ranked, and who can not communicate with you at all.
- Updated "Report" option
Tani ju mund të raportoni biseda të tëra, që i shihni si të papërshtatshme ose të padëshiruara, ndërkohë që m parë mund të bëhej “report” vetëm një përdorues, pra, llogari Instagram-i, ose mesazhe të vetme.
- Sugjerime për të bërë “block”
Instagram dhe Facebook do t’ju sugjerojnë herë pas herë profile active që mund të bëni në “block”, duke u bazuar në profilet e mëparshme që ju keni bllokuar.
- Ngjyra e bisedave të personalizuara
Ju do të mund t’i personalizoni mesazhet tuaja me ngjyra dhe tema të përsonalizuara, të tilla si “dashuria”, “gay-pride” etj.
- Emoji të personalizuara
Mund ta komplikoni lojën e emoji-ve, duke eksperimentuar sa të doni me to.
- Selfie Stickers
Mund ta shndërroni foton tuaj në një sticker dhe ta përdorni atë në çdo bisedë.
It is still unclear when the update will take place, but Facebook said in a blog post that it is beginning to expand it "to some parts of the world", with plans for "global expansion soon".
