I’m very happy this app has been made. I’m trying to spend less time on IG but I rely on the DM service to keep up w friends. That this allows me to see their Stories is really a good middle ground. I like that the alert is not the default iPhone chirp. In a future update please make account switching as simple as it in with IG. Add the full Story creator too, filters, create, etc.. a real contender to snapchat would be awesome. Most of my friends only use Story so this is really an app I would use more than IG itself. For people sad it’s only close friends.. just add everyone to your list!

Won't populate any info from close friends list. Messages might appear if I get a new one and I force close and reopen the app, but will disappear immediately

it feels like another version of snapchat and most of the things i can do on this app i can easily do on the instagram app. why would i need to download a whole different app for essentially the same features?

I really enjoy the concept of this app because I’m trying to spend less time on instagram but want to keep in touch w friends via DMs. My only qualm is that I wish you could post photos from your phone on your story from threads. You can only capture something if you take it via the app. So no screen caps. Change that and it’ll be golden.

Would like this for more than close friends, as an alternative to having the full instagram app to not spend so much time on there. Give us that option?

I personally believe this app is amazing. I get to show what I’m doing every hour! But why only be able to share that with just my close friends ? There should be an option where I’d only be able to show my close friends, or be able to show all. I don’t have a problem with being too open, or just open in general. Why be limited when I should be able to show people that aren’t really my close friends but close enough to not be ashamed or embarrassed. Maybe it being open to all is too much, how about just to whom I’m following. For now I rate this app 3 stars. Another thing I’d like to address, why shouldn’t I be able to do this on Instagram; set my status I mean. Wouldn’t it be so much easier and less work? There’s already a lot of features on Instagram, and I understand that. I just find it so much more difficult to go between two apps when I simply just want to change my status.

Add some filters to the camera and allow messages to be sent to people outside of your “close friends”. Your close friends should be like a private story while you can still message everyone you follow and have them view your story. Great idea though! Make it like a new Snapchat.

Well it’s not a bad app and it doesn’t have bad ideas but I don’t think it should be a whole separate app. This is basically instagram DMs with extra steps. I really do like the status feature I think it’s cute, but that’s really the only good thing about this app. I downloaded it and stopped getting notifications from instagram it was really inconvenient. I wish instagram would just add the status feature to the regular instagram app cause downloading this app isn’t really worth it in my opinion.
