Instagram gets ‘Snapchatty’

This week, Instagram launched an app update introducing ‘Instagram Stories’, a new feature that works exactly like Snapchat Stories, allowing you to post photos and videos chronologically that vanish after 24 hours. Also much like Snapchat, Instagram has also released some new photo editing tools, allowing users to write or draw on their photos and add emoji before posting them. Instagram Stories appear in a bar at the top of your feed — giving maximum visibility to ‘stories’ from people you follow.
