Meta (formerly Facebook) is rolling out the ability to comment on Instagram posts with animated GIFs (Graphics Interchange Format).

“It’s a bit of an ‘eventually feature,’ but we’re launching GIFs today in the comments,” Mosseri told Zuckerberg.

GIFs in Instagram comments are available in the latest version of the app.
Furthermore, Mosseri also said that Instagram is testing lyrics in Reels as well.

Based on the screenshots shared by Mosseri, the report states that a timeline at the bottom of the interface will allow users to properly sync captions.
Meanwhile, Instagram has announced new features on its short-video making app to empower creators.
