Six new features are now available for Facebook and Instagram creators to use with their Reels content. But out of the six, the support for a sticker prompt is the most notable addition.
'Add Yours' Stickers
Users of Instagram and Facebook may now add the "Add Yours" sticker to their Reels to add an interactive component to their posts. The sticker enables users to reply to other users' Reels on a particular topic or in response to a request, according to the news stories by Digitaltrends and TechCrunch.
When other users start responding to your Add Yours sticker prompt, both Facebook and Instagram will create a page with all of the responses, with a mention about who initiated the sticker prompt trend at the top of the page. It is possible to view the feature as a tool to find new people to follow even if its primary goal is to encourage users to collaborate.
Here 's how you can Add Yours stickers to your Reels (via Digitaltrends):
You should be able to use it on Instagram by first making a Reel as usual, then choosing Preview > Sticker icon, and finally Add Yours sticker logo. Then, you may either choose the Dice icon to produce a random prompt or write your own prompt.
Meanwhile, to use the feature on Facebook, you must create a Reel as usual and then select the Stickers icon > Add Yours sticker icon. You can then create your own prompt after that.
