Threads is testing an invite-only bonus program that compensates creators based on the performance of their posts and/or the number of posts they create.

Instagram has added the ability for users to mention specific contentin carousel posts when commenting. To do this, users can use the "@" symbol followed by the number corresponding to the placement of the photo or video in the carousel, and then type out their comments.

Threads is testing swipe gestures. By swiping right on a post to like it, or left to show disinterest, users can help train their algorithms and influence what appears on their For You feed over time.

Instagram is currently testing a Link Highlight feature. This feature enables creators to link their Story Highlights within their Reels.

Instagram will now allow users to replace audio in Reels to boost them.

Threads has begun testing its API with select third-party apps, including Hootsuite, Sprinklr, Sprout Social, Social News Desk, and Techmeme.
