Instagram announces new filtering update that reorganizes message requests for creators
Popular picture and video-sharing platform, Instagram has announced a new filtering update from different sources that reorganizes message requests for creators.
Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram, who announced the new filtering update on Instagram noted that it could fix one of the most frustrating problems for creators.
He claims that scores of Instagram users who have a creator-designated account can now filter message requests in their inbox by sender, just like Gmail labels do.

Another feature of the upgrade is the ability to organize all of your Instagram story replies. You may also sort and filter your article answers by going to the top of your email “in case you just wanna get to these requests really quickly and easily,” according to Mosseri.
“Now there’s a lot more to do to improve the inbox for creators and requests but hopefully this is one step in the right direction,” Mosseri adds in his video. He also said this feature was one a lot of creators were asking for, so hopefully Instagram will be adding more inbox tools in the near future to make that part of the app a bit cleaner.
