Instagram lets you share your location and get silly in latest update for DMs


Thanksgiving is coming up, which means you might want to know where people are.

According to a Newsroom post, Instagram states you can share your location "privately" in one-on-one and group chat DM threads. Instagram highlights a few security/privacy advisories, stating users will notice an "indicator" at the top of a chat thread, alerting them to their shared location. The feature is wrapped in testing; however, Meta states that users will (in the future) have the option to reset their entire set of feed recommendations.
