Can You Get Instagram Notes in The UK?
Instagram has not launched its Notes feature in the UK. For the past few months, the app has been testing the Notes feature in the US. And as per their latest updates, it has become an official feature from December 13th, 2022.
The US is the only place that has launched this feature. As of now, the Notes feature is unfortunately not seen in the UK and among other European users. Instagram has not revealed whether it will introduce the Notes feature in the future in those regions or not.

New Features in The US
Apart from Notes, there are some more exciting “sharing features” which are launched in the US. They include Group Profiles, Candid Stories, Add your Nominations, and collaborative collections. According to Meta, they are introducing features for their users to feel closer to those who are special to them.
- Group Profiles: Users can create and join new profiles and share posts and stories from the second profile with their friends. To create one, click on the plus icon and select Group Profiles.
- Candid Stories: Instagram has introduced a unique way to capture and share your updates through a story that is only visible to the people who share their own. Each day you get a notification reminder to post the same.
