Instagram Wants You To Leave Notes for Your Followers or Other People with the New Update
The feature started rolling out to some Instagram users recently as it is available on devices running v254.0.0.19.109. The feature can be found as a new section that stays below the search bar on the chat page. You will see a button that will let you add a new note, as well as notes from users that you are following.
Once you go ahead and tap the "Your Note" button, it will open a new page that will let you add a note for your followers. There is a description on top of the page that mentions how your followers will not be notified when you add a note. However, they will be able to see the note for 24 hours and reply with a message. The page also includes a Share with a section that lets you share your notes with "Followers you follow back" or "Close friends."
Once you go ahead and share a new note, your followers can reply to it by simply tapping on the note on the main chat page. This will open a text box with the note itself, a profile picture, and the user's Instagram handle. It will also show how long ago the note was shared.
