Instagram Brings Back the Chronological Feed Option
Written by SOURCE on March 23, 2022
After fielding a few solid years of complaints, Instagram has finally budged and brought back the option to have your feed in chronological order.
The Meta-owned social media platform shared the news on Wednesdsay, outlining the different ways which users can interact with their feeds.
“You’ve been asking, and we’ve been listening!” IG wrote in a caption. “Today we’re launching two new chronological views for your Instagram Feed, Following and Favorites. Swipe through to learn more.”
Along with the option to view new posts in reverse chronological order, IG has also created subsections within the chronological setting called “Favorites” and “Following.” Following allows a user to view the latest posts of people they follow from newest to oldest, and Favorites lets users curate a list of up to 50 specific accounts to browse chronologically.
Instagram will still have an option to leave the feed the way it’s been for some time now—a mix of new, old, and suggested content.
