Instagram to soon test new repost feature with select users: Report

Meta-owned photo and video-sharing platform Instagram has confirmed that it will soon give users the ability to repost other users’ posts.

Although the company has not yet released the repost feature publicly, however, it plans to begin testing it with select users soon, reports TechCrunch.

“We’re exploring the ability to reshare posts in Feed – similar to how you can reshare in Stories – so people can share what resonates with them, and so original creators are credited for their work,” a Meta spokesperson was quoted as saying in an email.

“We plan to test this soon with a small number of people,” the spokesperson added.
