Instagram users can now display their photos by location with a new mapping feature, utilizing the app's geolocation abilities to visually showcase where photos were taken.
The company rolled out the new feature, along with other tweaks to the app's interface, in an update today.
Instagram seems to have paid careful attention to ensuring that users who don't want to mark their location can avoid it from the start.
When using the mapping feature for the first time, users will be able to select which of the photos they previously tagged with geolocation to display on the map. After that initial mapping, users will be able to turn the option on or off each time they upload a photo.
The user can remove a location marker from a photo at any time.
Other updates include bigger grid photos and larger text boxes for captions -- to allow for longer captions -- and a quick way to report individual comments as abuse or spam. Instagram also promises a faster and more responsive app.
