Instagram<\/a> \u2013 Meta’s photo and video sharing platform \u2013 is planning to introduce a way for users to get early access to features, according to a recent leak. At present, testers can only join the [Android] Beta program to access Instagram’s beta features which are currently in the test phase. With the rumoured \u201cearly access\u201d, users may be able to experiment with the in-development features through an alternate method.<\/p>\n

A screenshot shared<\/a> on Threads<\/a> by developer Alessandro Paluzzi suggests that the option to join early access may be present in the Settings and activity<\/em><\/strong> tab. A new \u201cearly access to features\u201d is reportedly visible as the last option.<\/p>\n

With this new option, Instagram might finally allow users early access to its experimental features similar to Google<\/a> Search Labs and YouTube Experiments.<\/p>\n

AI-Generated themes on Instagram<\/h2>\n

Paluzzi also revealed that the social media platform is working to further incorporate artificial intelligence<\/a> (AI) into its app. It may reportedly allow users to generate themes for chats with AI.<\/p>\n

At present, Instagram allows users to tweak chat themes with options such as gradients and colours, while also presenting special themes. A screenshot shared by the leaker shows a new Create with AI<\/em><\/strong> option alongside other chat themes such as Pickleball, Snack Party, and Minecraft.<\/p>\n

A similar feature on WhatsApp<\/a> was also reportedly under development which might enable users to choose from five preset themes – blue, green (default), grey, red, and purple. As per the report, it might be available via a new theme picker and selecting a theme might change the colour and the wallpaper in the chat’s background.<\/p>\n

Upcoming Instagram cross-posting feature<\/h2>\n

According to another recent\u00a0report<\/a>, Instagram is also working to bring cross-posting to the platform. It would reportedly allow users to cross-post content from Instagram to Threads \u2013 Meta’s microblogging platform which serves as a direct competitor to X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n

This feature would not be turned on by default and users might need to opt-in to use it, the report speculates. It would reportedly work along the same lines as the cross-post functionality between Instagram and Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
