The new update has started rolling out and should reach all soon. While I couldn’t access the feature, my colleague could use it. The process of sharing Video Notes is pretty simple, and here’s what you need to do.

You can alsoattach a supporting textwith the Video Note for context. Currently, only your Close Friends and mutual followers will be able to see your Video Notes but this could be expanded to all followers or non-followers too.
Beebom’s Take
The addition of Video Notes sure sounds exciting but I am not sure if it makes sense. For one, it completely defeats the purpose of Notes, which was a text-based feature, much like how you can post on X (formerly, Twitter). To publish a short video or photo, we already have Stories, and with Video Notes, there can be a sense of confusion!
In my opinion, the feature will have the same treatment as Notes; it will be used by people frequently for the sake of trying out but the excitement will eventually die down. What do you think about the feature? Do you think it is a great addition or can be done without? Do share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
Furthermore, Instagram has introduced theability to send multimedia replies to Notesin the form of GIFs, audio, photos, videos, and even stickers. This is like the ability to reply to a post comment with photos or GIFs.

Started off as a stranger but tech is more like a good friend, thanks to over 5 years in the industry. While everything is attractive about tech, phones, social media, and quirky gadgets attract me the most. When not working, I find my solace in shopping and everything that concerns doggos!
