Instagram Boasts A New Feature


Instagram, a unique platform to share your stuff such as photos and videos, has become an essential app in almost everyone's devices. The app has been seen updating itself by adding exceptionally new features. It was developed as a platform to share photos and videos, but later, it started providing the facility to chat with your friends. With time, Instagram became a very easy to use and user-friendly application. Again, the app added a new feature recently that you might want to know about.
It introduced a new feature on July 19 which highlights currently online users directly in the messaging box. Earlier, the app had a feature which displayed “active today” status under the name but the new feature shown as a tiny green dot on the users' profile picture, will give a real-time update. The green dot will be displayed in your message section as well as in friends list.
The official blog of Instagram has stated that the green dot will be seen in various spaces inside the app. Facebook-owned Instagram further stated that only those friends who follow you or the people who you have talked to in-direct can be seen online. The feature also provides you the option to turn off the green dot in the settings of your application.
Since the feature is already used in Whatsapp and Facebook, every user can see their online friends. Similarly, Instagram became more convenient to use after the same feature was added to it.  However, the social networking giants are now changing their policy. According to the policy, it will crack down and suspend the accounts of suspected underage users. US Child Online Privacy Protection Act mandates the age of minimum 13-year-old as well as necessitates the technology companies to obtain parental consent before collecting the data about the underage users.
