Instagram says the new Recently Deleted feature offers protection against hackers, who delete users’ posts. The platform will also start verifying users.
Facebook-owned social media platform Instagram is adding a new feature that makes it easier to return deleted posts to your feed. The new feature, which is called “recently deleted” will allow users to take a second look at photos, reels, videos, stories and IGTV videos that you have deleted and return them to your account. Instagram claims this is a move to protect users against hackers. “We know hackers sometimes delete content when they gain access to an account, and until now people had no way of easily getting their photos and videos back,” it said in a blog post.
