Instagram announces ‘Your Algorithm’ feature for users to control their Reels feed

Instagram has announced a new feature called ‘Your Algorithm’ that will allow users to see and control what they can under the Reels tab. Users will be able to choose from among topics that the platform has found to be interested in, and decide what they want to see more of or even areas that they want to view less Reels of.
Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram explained that users will find the new ‘Your Algorithm’ tab on the top right and see a brief summary of their interests in Reels. These summaries will be AI-generated and the topics are based on recent user activity.
The options will include topics like Painting, GRWM, Chess or Horror Movies.
They will also have the option to share this summary with their followers on the platform.
The feature is first being rolled out in the U.S. starting today and will be expanded globally soon.
It was reported a month ago that Instagram had been testing this feature with Mosseri adding that the feature will be eventually for the Explore section too.
