Instagram expand their ‘hidden’ likes feature to Ireland

Irish Instagram users will no longer be able to see how many likes an image posted by another user has

Written by spunout

It has been announced that Instagram will be introducing their ‘hidden’ likes feature to Ireland in the coming weeks as part of an ongoing test. The test will prevent users from seeing the total number of likes an image or video has in the feed. The only person who will be able to see the total number of likes their post has is the user themselves.

This test was first rolled out in Canada in May, and Ireland is now one of six other countries joining the test, including Brazil, Japan, Italy, New Zealand, and Australia.
