Instagram announced that they are introducing two new features in its explore tab to discover the world around us. Known as location and hashtag, you can quickly make use of it to see what is actually happening around your environment and find some related stories. Location stories are made available on iOS and Android whereas, hashtag stories will start rolling out in the next week.
Location stories
After updating to the latest version of the app, you can find a new story ring located at the top of Explore tab. It consists of all the stories near you. All those stories are from friends who used location stickers while uploading their stories.
If you are interested in viewing the stories of other places, then you can manually search for such locations and it displays the story ring for the selected place.
