What Happened

Instagram confirmed testing Instants, a new app for sharing disappearing photos available in Spain and Italy. Users capture unedited photos viewable once, lasting 24 hours. The app prevents camera roll uploads, allowing only in-app camera captures with optional text. Instants focuses on authentic, real-time content, competing with Snapchat and BeReal platforms.
