Instagram brings GIFs to comments  

Tests with lyrics too

Instagram finally allows its users to comment on posts using GIFs. The announcement was made by the head of the company, Adam Mosseri, during his discussion with the CEO of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg, in an Instagram Channels chat.

As you might suspect, the new feature will allow you to comment on any post or reply to a comment using a GIF from Giphy.

In addition, Mosseri revealed that Instagram is also testing lyrics for Reels. The new feature builds on the auto-caption sticker introduced by Meta in 2021. Judging by the screenshots shared by Mosseri, a timeline at the bottom of the interface will allow users to properly sync subtitles.
