Meta-owned American photo and video-sharing social networking service Instagram is planning to release a text-based app that will compete with Twitter.

The Facebook parent is testing the product with influencers and some creators.

In the app, you’ll see a feed, and you can make text posts up to 500 characters long with attached links, photos, and videos.

Instagram is expected to launch this app in June.
