Pin Your Priority Chats

Tired of searching for your most important conversations? With Instagram’s latest update, you can pin up to three chats, whether they’re with individuals or groups, to the top of your inbox for convenient access. Simply swipe left or press and hold a chat, then select the pin option to prioritize your key discussions.

More must-reads:

Manage Read Receipts

Privacy matters and Instagram respects that. With the new update, you have control over who sees when you’ve read their messages. Whether you prefer to disable read receipts for all chats or selectively, it’s now effortless to manage. Navigate to your Account Settings, then Messages and Story Replies, to toggle read receipts on or off globally. Alternatively, customize this setting for individual chats by tapping on the person’s name, selecting Privacy and Safety, and adjusting the read receipts accordingly.

Save Your Favorite Stickers

Stickers add flair to your chats, and now you can easily access your favorites anytime! Simply press and hold the sticker you love, and it’ll be saved for quick use. Additionally, Instagram introduces three captivating new sticker themes: Love, Lollipop, and Avatar: The Last Airbender, enhancing your messaging experience with creativity and variety.
