Instagram today made it possible for people to add links to hashtags or other profiles in their own bio section. Inserting the links is easy.
Users simply enter the “#” or “@” symbol and Instagram will recommend popular hashtags or profiles as users type. The photo-sharing social network calls the new tool another way for people to express themselves and highlight the things they care about.
Users will be alerted if another person links to their profile and can approve or disapprove the link if they wish.
The new linking feature is rolling out to users in the latest mobile apps for Android and iOS.
