Instagram's question stickers to make stories livelier
The new sticker will let users take questions from followers while doing an Instagram Story.
It’s now universal that Instagram is the new destination to head for staying in touch with the latest trends of the world. It’s one of the few platforms that lets users reach out to their friends and public figures in some of the most interesting ways. With Instagram Stories, the idea of using unique stickers along with funky audio and text to convey a story has gone viral. Instagram has been banking high on its success, introducing interactive stickers to enhance communication between users. And now, they have released another sticker that will take public interactions on the platform a step further.
The new questions sticker in Instagram Stories will let your friends submit questions for you to answer. Instagram assures that it’s a fun new way to initiate conversations with your followers over your story.
The question sticker is easy to use — simply select it from the sticker tray after taking a photo or video. Then type out your text and place it wherever you’d like. Once you share your story, your followers can see the sticker and tap it to reply. They can reply as many times as they want, right from the sticker.
The question sticker will let you find your friends’ responses in your story’s viewers list. If you tap any question they’ve asked, you can create a new story, where you can answer it. The question you’re answering will appear on your story for context. For privacy concerns, your friend’s photo and username will not be shown when you share that response in your story.
The questions sticker is available in the latest version of the Instagram app for both Android and iOS. If you aren’t seeing the new sticker, head over to the PlayStore or the App Store and update the app to the latest version.
