California: The video and photo sharing platform Instagram has been rapidly introducing changes in recent days, most of which are related to content sharing.
However, yesterday Meta’s subsidiary brought its focus back to creative tools and introduced new filters after a while.
From subtle color edits to meaningful styling options, these updates will make it easier for users to try out multiple styles for their posts, Meta said in a blog post.

As always, users can increase or decrease the intensity of any filter with the help of a slider. But for the first time, some filters have also been introduced that will make obvious changes to the original image rather than just color and tone.
The purpose of introducing these filters by Instagram is to prevent users from going anywhere else to edit their photos.
The new updates also include more improvements regarding Rails.
Instagram says the platform is working on the ability to scale (change video resolution), crop and rotate individual clips, and will soon add ‘Undo’ and ‘Redo’ buttons.
The company added that 10 new English text-to-speech sounds along with some new fonts are also going to be part of the app.
