A new update for instagram released today could fix one of the most frustrating problems for creators. instagram.com/reel/DB1GSFPSGRs/” rel=”nofollow noopener” target=”_blank” data-ylk=”slk:Adam Mosseri;cpos:1;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas” class=”link “>Adam MosseriThe head of instagram announced a new filtering update on instagram for creators' inboxes.
instagram users with a creator-designated account can now filter message requests in their inbox based on sender, similar to Gmail labels. Creators can still sort their messages by most “recent” received and by “number of followers,” but they can now filter certain messages. New filters include requests and messages from “verified accounts,” “businesses,” and “creators.” and “subscribers”.
The update also includes a way to sort all replies to your stories on instagram. If you go to the top of your inbox, you can also sort and filter responses to your stories “in case you want to access these requests very quickly and easily,” Mosseri says.
“There is now much more to do to improve the inbox for creators and requests, but we hope this is a step in the right direction,” Mosseri adds in his video. He also said that this feature was one that many creators were asking for, so hopefully instagram will add more inbox tools in the near future to make that part of the app a little cleaner.
instagram has been playing with new ways to update its platform for higher-profile users and creators for a long time. The company began testing its creator account concept in 2018, which allowed the most famous celebrities and social media stars to filter their direct messages and track their followers' statistics.
