from Marketing and Margaritas Hosted by Marketing and Margaritas

Instagram’s been busy, and in this episode, we’re breaking down all the latest updates you need to know about.

We’ll cover: • How the Friend Map could change social sharing (and what it means for privacy) • The new ‘Reposts’ tab that works just like TikTok • Instagram’s new SEO upgrades and why they matter for discoverability • 2x speed on Reels (finally!) • The ‘Lately’ highlight and why it’s handy for creators • And how the new Instagram Edits app makes content creation smoother than ever. Stay ahead with the latest Instagram trends and updates.
