Instagram will tell you now when you've seen all the messages from the last two days

Since the algorithmic and disordered chronology of Instagram is a mystery to all humanity, the company has deployed a new feature that will let you know when you have scrolled all the new messages of the past 48 hours. When you meet him, you will see a big green tick and a message saying "you are all caught off guard." Beyond the line break, there will be messages that have been read for more than two days mixed with more Recent. I have already seen and parade.

Older posts may still be technically new to you based on your Instagram habits, but 48 hours seems like a reasonable marker. TechCrunch previously reported that this handy feature – and a little semblance of order for the Instagram confusing flow – was on the way. You should start seeing it today on Android and iOS.

Facebook and Instagram are working on other tools to show users how much time they've spent recently in applications. We expect that they will soon add screens similar to Apple's Screen Time (coming in iOS 12) and Google's Dashboard (coming soon in Android P) that break down your D & D habits. Use and detail how often you open the application. 2018 aims to help consumers find a better balance between gadgets / applications and other aspects of life.

Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom said the company was developing "tools that will help the Instagram community better understand the time spent on Instagram," adding that "any time should be positive and intentional."

But inside the app, some attractive troubles remain. You still can not get rid of these brilliant IGTV notifications, for example. And as The Verge reported on Friday, it seems that Instagram is also trying to keep Stories in front of you anytime when the application is open.
