Instagram’s algorithmic timeline goes live for all users

instagram (2)

Recently, Instagram announced that the company will be introducing a new algorithmic timeline soon. The new algorithmic timeline basically shows all of the pictures in your feed out of order, and apparently shows the "moments you care about first." A lot of Instagram users didn't like the announcement, but Instagram went ahead with its plan and the company is now rolling out the new feature to all users.

In March, we announced a new way of ordering posts in feed so you'll see the moments you care about first. On average, people miss 70 percent of their feeds. It's become harder to keep up with all the photos and videos people share as Instagram has grown. Over the past few months, we brought this new way of ordering posts to a portion of the community, and we found that people are liking photos more, commenting more and generally engaging with the community in a more active way.

With this new ordering you won't miss your favorite band's video after the concert, even if it took place across the world in a different time zone. And no matter how many accounts you follow, you should see your best friend's latest posts.

The new algorithmic timeline seems to be a service-side update, which means you probably wouldn't need to update the Instagram app itself. Instagram stated that the feature may not be available for some users at the moment — and if it isn't available for you just yet, it should be available in the coming month.

In case you are wondering: no, there is no way you can disable this feature which is certainly quite annoying. Nevertheless, if you want to download Instagram on your Windows 10 Mobile device, you can get it from the link below.
