2 [1]. Video Calls, Filters and the Explorer Menu
At the end of June, Instagram launched the video call feature in Direct. Users can initiate an individual or group call of up to four people. The video chat window can be minimized to continue browsing the application while the connection is occurring.
The novelty came with new augmented reality filters, which allows you to use virtual objects interacting with the actual storyline in the Stories messages. In addition, the latest update of the month has brought a redesign of the Explore tab, which separates the content by topics such as "Travel", "Sports", "Food" or "Music". The old version is still present, but in a new section called "For You".

The social network started testing a new version of the application, lighter than the conventional one. Weighing only 537 KB against 32 MB of the original application, Instagram Lite eliminates Direct (and as a result, video calls and other messaging functions) and other functions to make the program easier to store and to use on smartphones with simple hardware.
The company told the international press that the tests were initiated only in Mexico, and did not reveal when the novelty will be released in other countries, such as Brazil. The Lite version, for the moment, is unique to Android.

Instagram finally got an official way to add music to Sto ries messages. There are two: a sticker that can be positioned on the screen and a built-in recording mode on the built-in camera. In both cases, the user has access to a library of thousands of songs of several genres to choose from. You can also crop a specific section to use when recording a video.
The feature arrives for Android and iPhone (iOS), but the recording mode that allows you to choose the song before capturing the video is available, for the moment, only on the Apple platform.
