Instagram, the most popular social network of the moment, continues to update with more additions. Facebook lately is bringing new features such as the ability to send GIFs in direct messages, more filters for the popular superzoom effect and small improvements. Now the novelty is neither in the publications nor in the stories. They add the “Nametag”, a new way for your friends to find your profile and follow you.
The function is very simple.Instagram creates a kind of custom QR code. Other users, when they scan it in the application, will see the possibility to follow the user or view the profile. In this way, you will not have to enter the app and search for their username. How can we create our label?
First, you must update the application to the latest version available, although this option should come automatically. Once you have the latest version of Instagram, open the app, go to your profile and click on the top right menu, where there are three lines A menu will be displayed with different options. The first is called Nametag, which is what interests us.
Now you can quickly add friends on Instagram by scanning their nametags. You can also customize your own nametag with emojis, colors and selfies. pic.twitter.com/fq4HFNiDMy

Customize labels
The app will automatically create a personalized code with your username. The most interesting thing is that this code can be customized. We can include emojis, in the background, or even take a selfie to make it appear Afterwards, all we have to do is save and it's ready. The code is saved in the application, within the “Nametag” option.
If you want to scan another user's profile, you must enter the menu again, select the option and you will see that under your label there is an option to scan.The camera will open and you can read other labels. When the app recognizes her, Instagram will tell you her username and give you two options. The first, follow it directly. The second, see his profile, where you can also follow him manually later.
