The social network is currently rolling out new updates that will help content creators promote their live videos. Additionally, creators will have access to a third option that will allow them to share their information with users who aren't followers.

Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri explained the new features the network will offer users through his official Twitter account. Attached to a video, Mosseri's tweet explains, "New features. Some fun ones this week: Live in Profiles, Video Remix. Let me know what other features you'd like to see."

Lives on profiles

This tool will allow users to show and broadcast their future live streams. The option focuses on those who are going to do a live stream, being able to add it to their profile, in addition to the information about the scheduled live stream. When a follower visits the profile, they'll see a banner with the live video information. Tapping on it will open the live video information, as well as a reminder option for Instagram to notify you when the broadcast starts.

Remixes

Another of the aforementioned updates is remixes. In true TikTok fashion, the app is entering direct competition with the latter, as in 2021 Instagram had declared that remixes would be exclusively for Reels, unlike now, when they can be integrated into all videos on the social network.
