Since Instagram added live video transmissions, many users have become fond of it. This function has been gaining followers, and the photographic social network wants to take advantage of the pull.
In June, the option to share direct via Instagram Stories arrived, making this type of content less ephemeral. Now the company wants to implement another novelty, but this time referring to the number of people who are in a live show.
Instagram direct can be a matter of two
As Instagram announced today through its official blog, it is testing a new feature. This is a way to give more life to these videos with the option to invite another person to participate in the same live show
In the words of the company itself, “starting today, we begin to test a fun way to be live with a friend” . Whether it's more fun or not, the point is that this feature is going to change considerably. In reality, direct calls will become very similar to video calls
Until now, what this social network allowed was the transmission of live videos in which other users could leave their reactions. Both comments and direct messages. But the way of interacting will take on a new dimension with the possibility of inviting someone.
How will this feature work?
This modality for Instagram directs will have a very simple operation. Using a new button, which will appear located in the lower area of the live interface, you can add another contactObviously, as long as you are connected at that moment.
When the other person has joined the broadcast, the screen will be divided into two parts The “host” will remain on the top, while the guest in the bottom. In this way, these contents will stop seeming so “forsaken”. Because users will not be alone in front of the camera.
Although they will resemble a video call, the main difference will be that there will be viewers. In other words, these “direct to two” will appear in the Stories section so that followers can see them and leave their reactions.
As announced by Instagram, this novelty is currently being tested by a small group of users. But as soon as they finish testing this feature, will arrive for everyone This is expected to happen in the next few days, although it may take a little longer.
So it's a matter of having a little patience to try the new live shows with guests. Do you find this new feature useful?
