Instagram new feature shows stories to only those who share their own stories

Instagram has announced that it will be testing the Candid Stories feature, which will allow people to capture and share anything they do in a Story. However, this will only be visible to those who will share their hidden stories. The feature appears to be a version of the BeReal app concept.

Instagram has become an app where people try to share perfect photos or short videos with filters, but the platform seems to want people to be more real. Thus, it adds a feature inspired by the BeReal app. The company confirmed that it is also testing a similar feature in Facebook Stories.

Instagram is also adding a new feature for group profiles. With this, people will be able to create and join this new type of profile to share posts and stories on a personalized shared profile with friends. To create a new group profile, simply click on the '+' icon and select Group Profiles.

According to a blog post on Instagram, when you publish content to a group profile, it is put to the group profile rather than your own and is only visible to other members of the group.
