Instagram has unveiled an exciting new feature designed for creators, enhancing the way they share their profiles. Users can now design a two-sided digital card that reflects their individuality through a variety of customizable options. This update follows Meta’s recent introduction of a music feature that allows users to personalize their profiles by adding a song that resonates with their current mood or personality.
Profile Cards on Instagram
The latest addition, dubbed the Profile Card, allows users to create a more dynamic and personalized digital card to share. This card includes a QR code that links directly to the user’s profile, along with options to include bio details, links to other pages, and music that captures their essence. Creators can further enhance the card’s appearance by changing the background color, including a personal selfie, or adding custom emojis.
One side of the card is designated for sharing, while the reverse features the QR code, making it easy for others to scan and access the profile. According to the platform, this feature provides a streamlined method for creators to connect with brands and facilitate collaborations. While the QR code sharing functionality has existed for a few years, the new Profile Cards allow users to showcase their interests and favorite music as well.
To utilize the Profile Cards, users simply need to head to their profile section on Instagram and select the Share Profile option. They can then customize their card by tapping the edit icon to incorporate desired information. Besides sharing on stories, these profile cards can also be disseminated across various platforms.
