The digital application Instagram has become for many years one of the strongest social networks and in which more hours are invested. It is used both as an instrument to pass the time, or also for business and to work on the personal brand in the world of marketing. For the most part, it serves to inform us, be in contact with known people, discover new products or services, learn, reach more people, show what we do, find inspiration, among others.

Now with the new updates, in a context of the renaming of the Facebook parent to Meta, there is a function that has become viral on the social network, since millions of users apply this filter to entertain themselves in their daily chores . This is the "Your Turn" sticker, in Instagram stories. We explain how to activate it and its main function.

HOW TO ACTIVATE IT?

Follow these steps to activate the function without complications and thus continue with this challenge and share it with your friends:

-Open the Instagram app

Take a photo or video, open the badge tray and select the “Your Turn” sticker

-Invite your followers and friends to share content on a specific topic.

-You can select a random theme by clicking “dice”, a new feature of this sticker.

-Now you can share your story with the viral sticker

-The app will notify you when someone joins your sticker. You will be able to see all the stories that join or use your sticker to share something.

-To participate in a “Your Turn” sticker created by someone else, simply click “Reply”.

WHAT IS IT FOR?

The "Your Turn" function in the stories of the Meta platform offers users the experience of creating collective content, that is, with other consumers of the application for the creation of challenges in photos. This will allow for better interaction and fun for people who are also planning to grow their personal brand on Instagram.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MUTING, RESTRICTING AND BLOCKING A PERSON

mute account on instagram

This tool is the least restrictive and technically not very drastic. What changes is the visibility of posts from that account, whether they are regular posts or stories. Basically, it's a function for when you don't want to see what this person posts.

The way to mute or unmute someone on Instagram is very simple:

1. Enter the person's profile

2. Press the Following button

3. Touch Mute

4. Check the box you want to disable (Posts or Stories)

Restrict account on Instagram

A bar above silence is restrictive, limiting the interactions the person can have with you.

The accounts you restricted can still comment and message you, but the messages come as requests, and the comments are only visible if you approve them. It's like leaving that account to talk to yourself without them knowing. To restrict an Instagram account, proceed as follows:

1. Enter the profile you want to restrict

2. Tap the menu button ⋮

3. Touch Restrict

Block account on Instagram

The concept of blocking is the easiest to distinguish, since it means cutting off any type of contact with the person in question. After you block someone on Instagram, they won't be able to message or comment on you, see if you're online, or view your posts or stories. This is how you block someone on Instagram:

1. Enter the profile of the account you want to block

2. Tap the menu button ⋮

3. Choose Block

4. You can choose to block this account or block this account and all future related accounts you might create

HOW MUCH DO INFLUENCERS EARN?

According to Business Insider, "As more brands turn to smaller creators, such as 'nano' or 'micro' influencers with fewer than 100,000 followers, establishing a career as a creator is no longer a pipe dream."

In this regard, “influencers depend on sponsored content to make a living. From posting a photo in the main feed with #ad to sharing swipe links in a series of Stories, sponsored content takes many different forms.” And "the rates for this type of agreement with brands also vary."

In this sense, an example is that of the influencer Alexa Collins, who has more than a million followers and charged more than $1,000 for a sponsored story on Instagram when BI spoke with her last year.
