Instagram adds city tags to photos
Table of contents:
From now on, you can add tags from the cities you're in to your Instagram Story photos. A function that was already in Snapchat and that, of course, could not be missing in its main competitor. What is left to copy to Snapchat? We think little. Very little. Although that does not matter, the main thing is to ensure that your social network continues to be used by millions of people.
Instagram has just announced it on its official blog. The first places to receive this new functionality are New York and Jakarta.Last November they began to develop temporary stickers according to the season, such as Christmas or Valentine's Day. Now, you can also tell the whole world from where you are doing your stories.
This is how the new city tags work on Instagram
Once you've taken a photo in the Instagram stories section, all you have to do is click on the stickers section. If you are currently somewhere in New York or Jakarta, they will appear automatically. More than a dozen stickers with colorful designs: Brooklyn, Williamsburg…
Of course, you can modify the stickers as you like: stretch them, make them small and place them where you want on the photo. Instagram indicates that very soon will be adding more and more cities so that all users can enjoy them.This new function belongs to version 10.11 and you can find it in the Android Play Store or the iOS App Store.
Instagram and Snapchat, a 'beautiful' love story
Nothing can stop Mark Zuckerberg. If I can't buy your app, he thought, I'll copy it. And that was done with Snapchat, which very recently began to go public. It started with the ephemeral stories of 24 hours and, until today, it has just incorporated the stickers of cities. How far will it go to establish itself as the most used application worldwide?
