Instagram, the globally popular social media platform with hundreds of millions of users, continues to update its features. Following the recent release of the “Stories” feature, Instagram has introduced a new experience for users: the “Zoom” feature, which is now available starting today.
With the integration of the Multi-Touch functionality, Instagram now allows users to zoom in on photos and videos. This feature applies to all content, enabling zooming on images and videos in the feed, explore section, and profile pages.
The zoom feature works with the standard pinch-to-zoom gesture on mobile devices, making it possible for users to take a closer look at Instagram photos and videos.
As the world’s most popular photo-sharing app, Instagram continues to enhance user experiences through constant updates. Competing closely with Snapchat, Instagram saw positive feedback for its “Stories” feature and anticipates a similar reception for the new “Zoom” feature.
For now, the new “Zoom” feature is available exclusively for iOS users through the latest update. The same feature is expected to roll out for Android users in the coming weeks.
