Instagram has a special function prepared for iPhone and Android, the American company wanting to offer users something they currently do not have available on the platform. More precisely, we are talking about a new function that Instagram thought to bring people closer in school communications, it is similar to what Facebook offers for groups.
Instagram claims that its new function will bring people from the same schools closer because they will have the opportunity to enter virtual communities within the platform. We are talking about conversation groups created especially within the Instagram platform by the company owned by Facebook, users can only be part of those that are for the school or university whose courses they follow.
Instagram: SPECIAL function on iPhone and Android
Instagram claims that in order to offer this functionality, it analyzes the interaction of users with the iPhone and Android applications, the location, plus the posts they make. Based on the data obtained, it decides whether a user should be part of that Instagram group or not, people from other schools not having permission to access them.
Instagram sends invitations to users to enter these conversation groups to be able to communicate more easily with people from the same educational institution. At the moment, those from Instagram are testing the functionality with a small group of users in the US, but if it proves to be useful, then everything will be extended to the global level of the company.
