Meta-owned Instagram has gone through several changes and has turned into a whole new social networking platform than a just photo-sharing app it initially intended to be.

Now users share videos, updates that disappear in 24 hours, shop on the platform, build a business and monetise through their content, while Instagram plans to add more features and tools to the platform.

While Instagram already allows users to add songs to individual photos, the photo-sharing platform is working on a feature that will allow users to add music to a carousel of pictures.

As of now, the music plays when the user is looking at a single photo on Instagram feed, however, once this feature is rolled out, Instagram users will be allowed to add one song to a post that has bunch of pictures or videos.

This new tool will make it more fun to browse through multiple pictures while the music plays in the background.

Meta-owned Instagram is testing a new tool that will let users add songs to their photo carousels on the platform.As per reports, the tool is already available in a few countries with more to come. The social networking platform already allows users to tag songs to individual photos on Instagram but this new tool will allow users to swipe through the picture collection while the same song plays.During the company’s quarterly earnings call, CEO Mark Zuckerberg informed everyone that Instagram is testing a new way to add music to Notes.

Meanwhile, AI recommendations have pumped up the amount of time spent on Instagram by 24 per cent since Meta launched TikTok-rival short-video app Reels. “Reels also continue to become more social with people resharing Reels more than 2 billion times every day, doubling over the last six months. Reels are also increasing overall app engagement and we believe that we’re gaining share in short-form video too,” Zuckerberg said during the company’s quarterly earnings call.
