Insta shutters Boomerang, Hyperlase standalone apps

New Delhi, 16-June-2022, By IBW Team

Instagram to nudge teens away from harmful content

Shortly after dropping support for the IGTV application, the photo-sharing app Instagram removed its standalone Boomerang as well as Hyperlapse apps from Apple’s App Store and Google Play.

“We have removed support for the standalone Boomerang and Hyperlapse apps to better focus our efforts on the main app,” Instagram spokesperson Christine Pai said in a statement.

“Boomerang is still supported in-app in Stories, and Layout remains a standalone app in the Store. We’ll continue working on new ways for people to be creative and have fun on Instagram.”

Boomerang from Instagram launched back in 2014 and allowed users to create mini videos from a burst of 10 shots, IANS reported from New Delhi.

With 301 million lifetime global downloads, Boomerang was a popular app and people were still downloading the app at the time of its removal.

Hyperlapse lets users make professional-looking time-lapse videos and, perhaps, more importantly, offered impressive video stabilization. Meanwhile, Instagram is introducing automatic captions to videos in the feed. They will be enabled by default for creators, too.

Auto-generated captions will initially be available in “select” languages, but Instagram hopes to expand them to more languages and countries.
