More ads! That’s right – Instagram is testing out un-skippable adverts as screenshots of this new feature(?) began circulating on social media.
The ad breaks show a countdown timers which stop users from scrolling on through content on the app before the ad finishes.
This is a similar advertisement technique to that of YouTube, which stops videos at certain points for advertisements to play.
As Instagram took on a more commercial route, with ads finding their way in various aspects of the app, it seems as though this new feature will be increasing visibility for more clients and brands on the app.
What do you think of these adverts?
