Instagram is looking into adding features that are similar to Pinteres, a war familiar to that of Facebook and Snapchat a while back. Code buried in Instagram for Android shows the company has prototyped an option to create public “Collections” to which multiple users can contribute.
Instagram launched private Collections two years ago to let you Save and organize your favorite feed posts. But by allowing users to make Collections public, Instagram would become a direct competitor to Pinterest.
The “Make Collection Public” option is not available to the public for now, but from the Instagram for Android code,(the techsavy will try) on can get the prototype.Instagram is however not ‘openning it up’soon but it is something that they have been considering.
This is how it would look like after a user has made their collection:
doesnt it look like Pinterest?
Well for us, we will just stay entertained as we watch how it turns out.
