Instagram to launch new QR code feature
Instagram is currently testing a new feature called “Nametags” that will enable users to create a unique image for their profile that others can scan with the Instagram stories camera to follow them. Once launched, Nametags will make it easier for people to visually promote their Instagram accounts, with the ability to post their Nametags across other social media platforms as well as printing it onto posters or making merchandise out of it. Nametags is the second feature since the launch of Instagram Stories that the platform has replicated from Snapchat, who launched their Nametag equivelant back in 2015, known as”Snapcodes”.
