Instagram is one of the most popular social media platforms of the moment, over 800 million people using it daily on phones with iPhone si Android. Because there are so many people who use Instagram, the American company wants to integrate two new functions that allow making video and audio calls from the application.
Instagram has become known as a platform where pictures can be shared, but over the years it has evolved a lot, and now the company wants to offer it a function that has been available in Snapchat for some time. Although there is no clear information, it seems that Instagram will have this new function integrated through the interface that allows sending direct messages.

Instagram has been testing these new functions for some time, they have been rumored for implementation from various sources, but only now do we have clear evidence regarding its offering. You can see in the screenshots below how the interface that allows the initiation of calls, or their administration, as well as the interface with information about the function, would look like.
"But now that the button icons are in APK, which is publicly available but takes work to decompile and comb through, it's hard for the company to deny the coming launch. Last month it gave me a no comment when TechCrunch spotted a new Giphy GIF sharing feature...which then launched a week later."
Instagram has over time taken over many functions that were offered within the Snapchat application, and it seems that things are not going to stop soon, unfortunately for the American company. Instagram is constantly growing in popularity, so these functions are important for increasing the degree of interaction in the application, so it remains only to see when the function will be announced and which others will be offered with it.
