Instagram  users can now publish videos that last up to 60 seconds, before today it was only possible videos up to 15 seconds. This new feature extension, following the latest update on iOS and Android will be available to all users within the next coming months.  This new user feature occurs on the context where around two months ago, Instagram  had extended the video length capability for its advertisers up to one-minute long.  “ We want to bring you fun, flexible and creative ways to create and watch video on Instagram,” the company announced on a post .

Good news for Instagram users, as a new capability is now available called  Instagram photo tagging , and it follows on the popular feature already present on Facebook .  The new capability is now present on the new version of Instagram app available on  iOS and Android . The way it works is that users are able to tag photos of any person or brand, and as a result photos will display the tags under "Photos Of You” section of users profiles.  It is quite to similar in comparison to the way it works on Facebook, as it follows that users notifications are sent to anyone that is tagged where permissions are requested before publications show a user tag, as standard.
