Instants, an Instagram app

Instants is an Instagram companion for sharing quick camera moments and viewing ephemeral posts.

Our take

Consider for everyday photo sharing within the supported Instagram experience

Direct camera entry reduces editing steps.

Keep in mind: Expired moments cannot be viewed again through the described app flow; ephemerality does not guarantee recipients cannot retain a copy.

What you can do

  • Capture and share a moment
  • View available ephemeral Instants
  • Access supported Instants through either app

Good for

  • Instagram users comfortable with brief social sharing

Consider alternatives for

  • Users expecting permanent albums or guaranteed secrecy

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 16.3.
  • Expired moments cannot be viewed again through the described app flow; ephemerality does not guarantee recipients cannot retain a copy.

Privacy & permissions

Camera images, audience and social identity are sensitive; check recipients before sharing.
