⚠️ New Instagram Feature ⚠️

Parents, we want to make you aware of a new Instagram feature called "Instants" which allows users to send disappearing photos through direct messages - similar to Snapchat.

There have already been reports of photos being automatically sent to entire contact lists.

You can hide or disable this feature under "Content Preferences."

Staying informed is one of the best ways we can help keep kids safe online.
