It has been revealed that the Nudge feature in MSN Messenger, which became the most used instant messaging software in the world for a while and was discontinued in 2013, will come to the Instagram application.
Alessandro Paluzzi, who emerged with the reverse engineering method of future innovations in social media applications, announced the development with the words “Instagram is working on Nudges”. The poke button, which allows you to attract the attention of the other person by sending a notification, is already used on the Facebook platform.
Instagram put a ‘nudge’ button in the DM section
The poke feature developed for Instagram will be available in the DM section. If the activity status of the person you are messaging is open, “Ahmet is active now,” on the chat screen as soon as he is online. Poke.” A text like this will appear and when you press the poke button, a warning will be sent to it.
When the Nudge feature called “send vibrate” in MSN Messenger was activated, the other person’s chat window was flickering. When you poke someone on Facebook, only a notification with the message “Your friend poked you” goes away. The working logic of the feature on the Instagram platform is not yet known.
Alessandro Paluzzi asked a follower about this issue, “He’s sending the????emoji right now. But since the app crashed right after, I don’t know what else it actually does.” gave the answer.
Extended Reels time
While the poke feature is under development, Instagram recently rolled out something that Reels users will love. Previously, it allowed uploading videos of up to 60 seconds. Reels videos of 90 seconds (1.5 minutes) can now be created. Its arch-rival TikTok is preparing to increase this time to 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, the Reels feature came to Facebook in February and is said to be coming to WhatsApp soon. But it’s not yet clear when it will bring Reels as WhatsApp is busy with more important matters, including the Multi-Device 2.0 system that allows one account to be used on two phones at the same time.
