Instagram may allow users to add links to their image captions – but there’s a catch


Instagram has been a past master at mimicking features that other social platforms have brought in. The most recent case was that of Reels, which attempted to be the in-house TikTok for its users, albeit with limited success till date. However, for some reason, the Facebook-owned platform has refrained from adapting a feature from its foster parent or Twitter. 

Yes, we are referring to the ability of adding links to our stories on Facebook and Twitter. Steadfastly, Instagram has stayed away from incorporating this feature and till date only allows users to share links via their bios. However, a recent patent filing suggests that changes could be afoot.
