The changes include: home feed format, video and photo format. Videos are now in 9:16 ratio, while non-9:16 posts now blur the background. The changes are a result of Instagram&#8217;s attempt to emulate the formula that TikTok uses to display videos. You can find out more about the new changes by reading this article. But before we get into those changes, let&#8217;s look at how they&#8217;re affecting your Instagram experience.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_activity\"><\/span>Your activity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;ve probably seen the new &#8220;Your activity on Instagram in 2022&#8221; feature floating around on Instagram, but you may not know what it is or how to use it. The new feature has been available for testing over the last year, but Instagram just made it available for all users. It allows you to manage your content and interactions in bulk. You can sort and search through past interactions to find them. If you have questions, follow these steps to learn more about Instagram&#8217;s new feature.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_home_feed\"><\/span>Your home feed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A new update to Instagram&#8217;s home feed is coming this May. Despite a change in the layout, users in the test can expect to see larger photos and videos. These new images and videos are the result of a new 9:16 ratio, which makes them look more like a vertical rectangle. Fortunately, this change is temporary. It will be back when Instagram rolls out the full update on May 22.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limits\"><\/span>Limits<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In order to prevent spam, Instagram has implemented account limits. These limits are aimed at combating abusive behavior, but they also affect honest marketers. Luckily, there are ways around these restrictions. Follow this guide for some tips on how to stay within Instagram&#8217;s limits. Continue reading to learn more about these limitations and how they can affect your marketing strategy. Here are some of the most common ways to stay within Instagram&#8217;s limits:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Map_search\"><\/span>Map search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Map Search feature on Instagram is a great new way to discover local businesses. It works like Google Maps Explore, but instead of searching for businesses, you can browse popular tagged locations. The best part? You can filter by location type! You can find places based on the hashtag you used to tag them. You can also see where people have been. Whether you&#8217;re looking for a local restaurant or a new place to explore, the Map Search feature will help you find it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limits_for_comments\"><\/span>Limits for comments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The latest Instagram update includes an educational hub and parental control tool. The update is still in its early stages, but the social media platform hopes to roll it out globally. The new features aim to improve communication between teens and their parents, giving parents more control over the content they post, and giving teens a safe space to express their concerns. Users are encouraged to check out the updated features. Listed below are some tips to use them effectively.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tags_for_collaborators\"><\/span>Tags for collaborators<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To highlight creators that haven&#8217;t received credit for their work, Instagram has implemented enhanced tagging options. By adding tags to content, creators can specify who worked on a post and include a credit for their contribution. Tags can be used directly on a post, or users can specify collaborators in the caption. This feature has a number of benefits, including helping to prevent cultural appropriation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Instagram_Amber_Alerts\"><\/span>Instagram Amber Alerts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For people in active search areas, Instagram is integrating an AMBER Alerts feature. These alerts will appear on the user&#8217;s feed, depending on the location. In order to determine if an alert is relevant, Instagram uses the user&#8217;s city listed in their profile, IP address, and location services. Users who hide their location will not be affected, but their account will not be visible to those who are looking for missing children.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limits_for_DMs\"><\/span>Limits for DMs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The new Instagram update will allow users to type captions on their videos and photos. This will be limited to 66 characters. Instagram will be rolling out the feature in 16 languages, with the number expected to rise in the coming months. The new update will also allow users to add up to 30 hashtags to each post, with five to ten being the most common. Users can now upload videos up to 60 minutes long to their IGTV profiles. Videos can be up to 15 minutes long if they&#8217;re uploaded from their smartphones.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bBxo4ZLJ3Q8\" height=\"245\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"438\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the New Instagram Update 2022?
