Instagram update for iOS removes Facebook likes

Instagram iOS

Parece que el mundo de las redes sociales en iPhone ha llegado a un acuerdo para actualizarse casi a la vez. Ayer veíamos como Facebook estrenaba nueva versión en la App Store con interesantes novedades, y no con pocos problemas al escondernos la sección de Noticias más recientes. Today it was Instagram's turn, which seems to have understood the privacy demands of its users who have reported so many problems in the past. And it also seems to have been clear to him that the fact of belonging to Facebook does not imply that one and the other must be necessarily connected.

In fact, we tell you all of the above because the main novelty of the update of the Instagram app that we find in the App Store is precisely the automatic unlinking of the likes we do on the photos of the social network with those who shared on Facebook. Until now, the permissions we granted to Instagram on Facebook allowed each like of the photographs to be published on Zuckerberg's social media. With the new version, this part disappears. But don't worry, that integration, for those who want it, continues in a different way.

What is changed are the permissions that are granted. Now Instagram for iPhone What it does is precisely allow the user to configure the sharing of Instagram information on Facebook through the app menu. If the option is activated, we can publish on our Facebook the contents that we have on the social media of the images with the famous filters. However, Instagram Likes will stay on Instagram and we will not see them on the other social network.

It seems like a wise decision to me. I believe that each social network is for one thing. And if buying Instagram means merging them the way they were, I don't know to what extent it made sense to keep both.

    Okay that, I never liked that option, because I like them it would not only be from your photos if not from other people who you like, then you lose privacy in that sense. if you understand what I say 😀
