Meta-owned Instagram has started testing an innovative collaboration feature that will allow your friends to add photos and videos to your feed posts. This feature will make content sharing more engaging and fun.

Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced on his Broadcast Channel, “New test alert. We just started testing a new way to invite friends to join in on your feed posts.

In our opinion, the new collaboration feature on Instagram that will allow friends to contribute photos and videos to your feed posts has several benefits. With this feature, users will be able to create collaborative content with their friends, making it a more shared experience. This can be particularly beneficial for events, trips or group activities where multiple perspectives and contributions are valuable.

Also, the new feature will allow the original poster to approve the photos and videos before they are added to the post. This will maintain some level of control over the content and ensure that only appropriate and desired contributions are included.

Recently, Instagram started testing a new feature that will allow users to turn their photos into custom stickers to use in their reels and stories. This feature will allow users to express themselves in a more creative and personalised way. Also, custom stickers from personal photos or eligible images on Instagram will help users to stand out. Instead of using generic stickers, users will be able to create their own unique visuals, enhancing the originality of their posts and stories.
