Meta Platforms Inc.'s (NASDAQ:META) Instagram is working on a new feature that mimics Snap Inc.'s (NYSE:SNAP) Snapchat "Snap Map" functionality. This will allow users to share location with their friends from within Instagram, instead of using Snapchat.
What Happened: Mobile developer Alessandro Paluzzi discovered the Instagram "Friends Map" feature that has been in the works for a few months now.
Paluzzi discovers upcoming features in popular apps like Instagram before they are officially announced. He had discovered the first iteration of the "Friends Map" feature back in November, but since then, Instagram has added additionally functionality to make it ready for release.
