Thanks to Instagram, we got used to watching vertical videos. The platform has just introduced an option to post a landscape video on IGTV and we can’t wait to see what the users make of it.

“We’ve learned and grown a lot in this first year. In meeting with creators and viewers, we’ve heard about what they like – and what needs to be improved,” a company’s blog post reads. “In fact, that feedback has driven many of IGTV’s biggest changes so far. This includes the most important change we made this year: enabling creators to publish previews of IGTV videos to their Instagram feed, which added another way for viewers to discover IGTV videos. Since that launched February, we’ve seen viewers spending more time with IGTV and a surge of new original content from creators of all sizes.”

“We realize this is an evolution from where IGTV started – we believe it’s the right change for viewers and creators. In many ways, opening IGTV to more than just vertical videos is similar to when we opened Instagram to more than just square photos in 2015,” they write.

Last month, Instagram shared two big announcements. The first is that the Facebook-owned company just became a community of one billion people. This was a great opportunity to launch a new feature, about which was the second announcement: IGTV is here.

What is IGTV?

According to the official statement, “IGTV [is] a new app for watching long-form, vertical video from your favorite Instagram creators.”

“You’ll also be able to watch from within the Instagram app so the entire community of one billion can use it from the very start,” the company added.

IGTV will bring videos longer than one minute, which is the length of the videos Instagram allowed until now. There will be plenty of options for discovering new content to watch and users to follow.
