Synopsis – As per the chronological feed, the first part is the ‘Following’ in which the post appears from the pages you follow. The next one is the ‘Favourite’ in which you can add up to 50 accounts which you like the most hence, the list will be sorted.

There is a piece of good news for all Instagram users as the social media platform is all set to bring back the chronological feed. One of the most wanted features of Instagram is all set to come after the gap of 5 years. The company switched to an algorithmically-ranked feed which was not liked by many users, thus they are again making things easy for the users and bringing back the feed post order searched in recent options again. The work on this newer version started last year in December and is rolling out for most of the users out there. 

According to the reports, there will be two optional feeds available for Instagram users which they can use by clicking on the logo of Instagram present on the top. It will also help the users to customize their feed in a way they want to do that as per their preference. 

Also, the users have become way too satisfied with the algorithmically ranked content that they want that feature back now as it is very easy for them to check their favorite. As per the chronological feed, the first part is the ‘Following’ in which the post appears from the pages you follow. The next one is the ‘Favourite’ in which you can add up to 50 accounts which you like the most hence, the list will be sorted. In addition to this, in your feed, the posts from your favorite account will appear higher.

For people who are avid Instagram users, such as influencers, this chronological feature is best as all the things are sorted according to their choice and another advantage is adding or removing anyone from the list does not notify them. Thus, you can add any page or person to the list. However, none of these will be set as default, and if you want to see your favorite things you will have to select them manually.
