New Delhi, Aug. 7 -- Meta has rolled out a set of new features on Instagram, including the ability to repost content, a map to share and view friends' locations, and a redesigned 'Friends' section. These updates aim to make the platform more interactive, helping users share reels and posts more easily, and discover content based on location. However, the rollout has stirred criticism online, with many users accusing Instagram of lacking originality and trying to mimic other apps.

The new repost function enables users to share public reels and feed posts from other accounts directly with their followers. These reposted items appear under a dedicated "Reposts" tab on your profile and may also show up in your followers' feeds.
