Instagram has updated its latest version to show us how they are adding additional security measures for its users.
Instagram is one the top social networks Android Apps for social media bring with them a huge flood of users. It is well-known that this can result in some very unpleasant interactions. This is why Meta has updated their website.
Instagram has made a small change in its blocking system. Instagram users already have the ability to ban someone and block any other accounts that they create. It has been updated so users can block Existing Accounts that your troublemaker may have.
Hidden Words is being updated by Instagram. Users can now turn this feature on to automatically delete harmful comments and messages. According to Instagram, more than half of the more than 10,000 Instagram creators have activated the filter. However, the company is now testing Hidden Words for creator accounts.
Instagram states, in addition to allowing Hidden Words to be turned on and off by all users, that they will not cease making them available.
Hidden Words will remain a social media platform that builds on the existing features. In future updates, it will expand its reach to include Story replies. Offensive replies won’t be posted in the comments and will instead go directly to the Hidden Requests folder. They are safe from all eyes, at least for as long as you keep them there. Hidden Words can also support additional languages like Farsi and Turkish as well as Telugu and Marathi.
Hidden Words also will get a more precise filter to detect intentional misspellings. Instagram may also add more terms to help filter messages that could contain spam or scams. This feature will be available for English speaking countries, but it won’t extend to all.

Instagram wants to improve upon its “nudges”, a tool that helps users become more conscious of their content and time spent on it. Instagram will start to send users notifications that encourage them to slow down and consider how they might respond to comments it finds too offensive.
Now available in English, Portuguese Spanish, Spanish, French and Chinese.
When a request for a creation is made, the nudges function has been added to DMs. It works exactly the same way it does in comments. The user is prompted to rethink what they were about to write. In the next few weeks, this new Nudges feature in DMs is going to be available globally.
