Turn memories into instant prints with 'Frames'

The new 'Frames' sticker turns any photo into a Polaroid print.

Once you choose an image, and write a caption, the sticker will auto-add the date and time of when the photo was taken.

To view the image inside the frame, your followers have to shake their phone to let it "develop".

Use the 'Frames' sticker to highlight an event, a memory, or a throwback with your followers.

Post a hidden story with 'Reveal'

The new 'Reveal' sticker allows you to post a hidden Story with a blurred background The only way for your friends and followers to see it is to send you a direct message (DM).

When you create a Story with the 'Reveal' sticker, you can type a hint for your friends about your blurred story.

You have the option to see a preview of your story before posting.

You don't need to approve manually every DM from people who click on your 'Reveal' sticker.

Get creative with 'Cutouts'

With 'Cutouts' you can transform any video or photo into a custom sticker for Stories or Reels.

Once you create a sticker, it will be auto-saved into your sticker library, so you can use it again in the future.

There are two ways to create cutout stickers: from images in your camera roll, or from public photos published on Instagram.
