Instagram's app strategy really confuses me. You can already message each other in the main app, just add this extra functionality there? Same with their others apps - really annoying having a fragmented suite of apps to do stuff on one platform. Also that icon does not gel so well with the rest of the family.

Somedays I woke up and think "Why I only use 5 messenger apps (vk, messenger, telegram, whatsapp, imessage) to contact people. Shouldn't someone get a hold on this, like right now?". And it makes me sad. But no today. Today is my day.

Curious: not available in the US store, but it IS available in the Uruguayan store. LOL.
Jacob Miller
@boaticus lol same issue. Did it work for you when changing the store?
Ken Wallace
@jgmiller I didn’t change store, no. Wasn’t sure what adverse ripple effects that might have.

About time, I have full on conversations now just through DM, this is great
JoyValeriee
this is great, i'm trying to instal it but I am not seeing it in the US market. This would be great for my business account.
JoyValeriee
is there a special trial or preview link? I'd love to test this out
