Instagram Lets You Tag People, Add Accounts

By TechTaffy Desk

Instagram

When you upload a photo, you’re now able to add people as easily as you add hashtags, says Instagram. It doesn’t stop at people—you can add any account on Instagram.

Instagram has also launched a new ‘Photos of You’ section on your profile. When someone adds you to a photo, you’ll receive a notification and the photo will appear in your Photos of You. You can adjust your settings so nothing appears on your profile until you approve it.  

Instagram for iOS version 3.5 is available for download in Apple’s App Store, and Instagram for Android version 3.5 is now available on Google Play.
