How to turn off Instagram’s new Instants feature and retract photos you accidentally shared

ThinkingNews Desk · how this was written

Instagram has introduced “Instants,” a disappearing-photo feature that works both as an in-app option and as a separate app in select countries. The tool blends aspects of Snapchat’s fleeting snaps with BeReal’s spontaneous sharing, letting users post short-lived images and later retract or turn off the feature if a photo is shared unintentionally.
