Meta\u2019s Instagram is introducing a new way for people to interact with Stories. Starting today, you can send a private like when someone shares an image or video that catches your eye. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, the only way to respond to a Story was to either send the creator a direct message or an emoji reaction. In either case, your response would show in their messages inbox, thereby cluttering the interface.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you have access to the feature, you’ll find a new heart icon located between the “Send Message” pill and airplane icon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Should you decide to send someone a Story like, it will show up in the viewer sheet, which you can access by viewing your own Story again. People who publicly view your Stories won’t see a like count.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe idea here is to make sure that people can express more support for each other, but also to clean up DMs a little bit,\u201d\u00a0said Adam Mosseri<\/ins>, the head of Instagram. \u201cMessaging is a key priority for us, and a big piece of that is focusing on DMs between you and the people that you care about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Source: \u00a0engadget <\/p>\n\n\n\n Meta\u2019s Instagram is introducing a new way for people to interact with Stories.
