"As you can see in this example, posted by creator economy expert Lia Haberman, more users are now being prompted to try out the updated UI, which puts more focus on "your favorite spaces" in the app. Instagram chief Adam Mosseri says that option is coming to all users shortly, so if you haven't seen this prompt as yet, you soon will."
"The first [tab] is still Stories and Feed, Reels is the second tab, DMs are third, and you can now swipe between tabs. We're organizing the app around what people use it for most, which has increasingly been reels and DMs. I know these types of changes can take time to get used to, so we're giving people the option to try this early before we roll it out. If you're trying it out, let me know what you think."
"In fact, Instagram's already testing this out, both in the new iPad version of the app, and with selected users in India, giving the Reels feed the main, up-front focus."
Instagram is prompting more users to test an updated interface that emphasizes "your favorite spaces" and places greater emphasis on Reels and DMs. The navigation rearranges tabs so Stories and Feed occupy the first tab, Reels sits in the second, and Direct Messages are in the third, with swipe gestures enabling movement between tabs. Adam Mosseri said the option will roll out to all users shortly and that the company is giving people an early choice to opt in. Early tests appear in a new iPad app and among selected users in India, prioritizing the Reels feed.
