Instagram special feature to connect users with specific people

According to recent reports, Instagram will offer a new feature to its users that will allow certain people to have a higher priority in searches than other similar results.

The Instagram social network is working on a new tool that will allow users to have more and more optimal control over their account feed algorithm.

Alessandro Palazzi, a software developer for mobile platforms,
has just released a series of screenshots based on which a new feature called Favorites is being developed.
These images show that this feature allows you to prioritize family members, your favorite content creators, and the like in your Instagram input feed, so that when you open the software, you always encounter the content of these people first. It was in 2016 that Instagram took a chronological approach to displaying content, and users have repeatedly protested the way content is displayed.

Some time ago, Adam Mosseri, as the manager of Instagram, talked about this concern of users in his personal blog and explained how different algorithms work.

The current algorithm will look at the popularity of a post and then prioritize it based on your previous activities, and the order in your input feed will be based on a combination of the two.

Of course, it is not yet clear whether this feature will be officially added to the new features of Instagram or we may see the loss of this feature during the development process.

Normally, before the release, first an internal test period and then a test period will be performed by limited users on such a feature, and certainly the results of these tests will have a significant impact on the future of this system.
