Instagram is developing a new feature called “Picks” to help users find and connect with friends through shared interests. Meta representative confirmed that “Picks” is currently only in internal testing and has not been widely deployed.
This feature was first discovered by leakster Alessandro Paluzzi. Users can choose their favorite categories such as movies, books, games, music so that Instagram can suggest friends with similar interests.
This promises to create more natural conversations and increase personal interactions. Instagram head Adam Mosseri says the goal for 2025 is to increase creativity and community engagement. However, some users are concerned that Instagram is adding too many new features.
It is currently unclear whether “Picks” will be officially released or when. Dear readers, please watch more videos : Top 10 'Scary' Technology Devices of the Future.
