Instagram, the popular photo-sharing app, has recently added numerous new capabilities to its platform. Instagram's new features range from the removal of the Shop tab to the addition of the ability to share YouTube Music. In addition to this, the business has now released a new update called Notes, which will appear in the app's DM.

A text-based function Notes will primarily allow users to communicate with their pals using no more than 60 characters. In brief, the new function will allow users to post short remarks with their followers, which will appear in the latter's direct messages. The functionality is now enabled by default in the new Instagram app. The new tool can help creators, influencers, and companies share news, updates, and other critical information.
