Social networks are increasingly used among users as a form of communication, as they allow real-time information to our friends or followers within the network of what we are doing, with whom or in what place. Currently one of the most used and whose potential and scope are incredible is Instagram, which during the last years has been taking on more importance and reaching more users until it becomes what it is today: One of the preferred social networks by users and with more interaction in the world..
That this is so does not seem a coincidence, since Instagram has been incorporating functionalities apart from the wall of photos and videos that allow greater movement among users within the social network. Some of the most popular are 24-hour stories or direct messages .
Within Instagram stories we can carry out lots of actions: Put animated GIFs , questions and answers, surveys or even music. One of them is to label or mention another person in our history. And today at TechnoWikis we will explain how to perform this action step by step..
