Lately, with the arrival of the new iPhone and other Android mobile phones, portrait mode has become fashionable in selfies .
And it gives a very special touch, which is usually liked a lot, to our photographs.
Instagram will include portrait mode in its Stories
Not long ago we explained to you that Instagram will possibly include calls and video calls, becoming a messaging app as well as a social one.
Well, it seems that the application code reveals that in future versions Instagram will include portrait mode in Stories .
The discovery was made thanks to one of TechCrunch's readers who discovered an image that gives clues about this update.
Icon that reveals the future portrait mode on Instagram
This icon showing that Instagram will include portrait mode has appeared in the Android app. But it's pretty sure it will also be on iOS.
The effect would allow you to add a blur to the background, known as a bokeh effect. If you remember, it became fashionable after the release of the iPhone 7 Plus.
So far we don't know if we will be able to choose the blur level or if it will be a fixed filter.
This new function will be great for those people who do not have a mobile with integrated portrait mode. And those who already have it, will be able to use the application's camera directly.
More and more like Snapchat
I suppose, like us, you have noticed that each time Instagram includes new filters.
It looks more and more like the Snapchat filters. Who really started this thing about short videos that disappeared after a while. Including filters to make them more fun and viral.
With almost nothing left to copy, Instagram has stepped up to bring new features to users and bring the app to ultimate success.
When do we expect the release?
At the moment Instagram has not ruled on it. Neither for the option of calls and video calls, nor for the latter of the portrait mode.
So we'll have to wait and cross our fingers so that all these new features arrive soon on iOS.
