Whether you have an influencer complex or have too many interactions through Instagram, you may have considered creating default messages or quick responses so you don't waste time typing. Well, you should know that Instagram has already thought about it and have created this function to make life easier for us Perhaps more oriented to managing large communities or to give quick and repetitive responses if you are a business or a website, but useful in any case.
Just go through Instagram Direct, or any of the chats or conversations you have open in the application. Now, in addition to the camera icon to send photos or stories privately, a new symbol appears on the icon to send photos from the gallery or the heart. It's a speech bubble with three ellipses and gives access to all these quick answers. The only problem or opportunity (however you look at it) is that you have to create them yourself.
Clicking on the + symbol opens a new screen where you can manually compose the message. This will be the text that reaches your followers or interested customers, so think carefully about what to write and avoid errors and errors. The good thing is that Instagram has also thought of a way to invoke this message, and allows you to create a shortcut for it.Type a series of characters like “1”, “2”, etc. Once the message and its abbreviation have been specified, save it to start using it in chats.
You can record different quick responses with a different abbreviation for each one. All responses are stored in the window that is displayed when you click on the new Instagram Direct icon, so you can click on any of them and leave it written in the box of text. List to send, or to modify if it is necessary to change or adapt the message to each user.
If you decide to memorize and use the abbreviations, just write it in the text box as a message.Once typed, the new Instagram quick replies icon appears illuminated in blue on the right side of the box. It means that it has detected the abbreviation and you can change it to the quick response with a single button press. This way the long message appears in the text box, also available to modify if necessary before sending. And ready.
