Instagram is working on a bunch of new stickers for Stories and chat themes. There’s a new link sticker that will let users add links directly to Stories, and a ‘Super Mention’ sticker. Instagram is also working on new Star Wars themes for chats in Direct Message (DM). The new stickers and chat themes were spotted by app researcher Alessandro Paluzzi (via Social Media Today). The new link sticker will let users add links to Stories that viewers will be able to tap on and directly go to that web page. This feature will most likely be exclusive to accounts with more than 10k followers who currently have access to the ‘swipe up’ feature. This lets Instagram users add a link to their Stories but viewers have to swipe up to open that page. A visible link would be a better call to action feature. While it seems unlikely that all users will get the new link sticker, Instagram is yet to confirm on the same. There’s also a new Super Mention sticker in the works. As the name suggests, this feature will most likely show the mentioned account more prominently in Stories.
