Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced that Instagram profiles can now include up to five links, a feature that has been heavily requested by users. With this new update, users can edit their profile on the mobile app and add links, allowing them to provide titles and rearrange how they appear.

However, visitors to a user’s profile who add more than one link will still have to click through a message that reads, “[Your first link] and 1 other” to view the full list of links. This means that visitors will need to perform an additional click to view all the links that users have added to their Instagram profiles or if they already use a “Link in bio” service like Linktree.

Adding links to your Instagram profile is simple. To do so, tap the “Edit profile” button above your photo grid and highlights. Instagram users will be prompted to add multiple links in the new update. Although Meta’s interface for displaying these links may not be the most visually appealing, it is functional and effective.

Despite this limitation, the new feature is a useful addition to Instagram. It could make the platform more attractive to users considering switching from Twitter following Elon Musk’s takeover. Paid verification on Meta appears to have been inspired by Twitter, but Meta’s version provides users with direct access to customer support, rather than just Twitter Blue.

In conclusion, the new update from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is a welcome addition to Instagram. This feature will provide users with the ability to add up to five links to their profile, making it easier to share more information about themselves or their businesses. Although there is a limitation to how the links are displayed, it is still a great feature that will be appreciated by many Instagram users.
