What are Instagram Notes?

Before we jump into the nitty gritty of the insta notes, their trends and the meaning behind the codes, we must first understand what Instagram notes are. They are a shorter version of a status, which includes text and emojis that can be uploaded to your Instagram profile in the direct messages section. They are a fun and creative way to interact with your followers and keep them updated. The message you put up on your Instagram notes stays up for 24 hours on your profile and can be deleted by you or replaced. 

You can also scroll through other people’s notes just like you can swipe through stories, but you don’t exactly have to tap on it to see it. Another benefit of the notes feature on Instagram is that you can choose who can see your notes; if you want, you can post a note that can only be seen by your close friends,
