Instagram introduces music replacement for old posts

Instagram has introduced a new “Replace Audio” feature that allows users to change the music in their previously published feed posts.

In a statement, Meta said the new update enables users to replace the soundtrack of an existing post without affecting its likes, comments, shares or overall reach.

The company explained that the feature was designed to give users greater control over content they have already shared.

Previously, users who wanted to change the background music of an old Instagram post had to delete the post and upload it again. With the new feature, they can simply replace the audio while keeping the original post intact.

To use the feature, users need to open a previously published post, tap the menu in the top-right corner and select “Edit.” They will then see an option to replace the existing audio.

Meta said the rollout of the feature has already begun and it will be made available to all Instagram users in the near future.

Similarly, if someone is walking or recording a video, the camera can automatically follow their movements. This can make video recording smoother and give the footage a more cinematic appearance. The Chinese company has confirmed that the robot phone will feature a triple rear-camera setup. Its primary camera will have a resolution of 200 megapixels.

  • YouTube app ends support for Android 6 phones

    YouTube is the world’s most popular video-sharing service watched by billions of people every day. The YouTube app is widely used on smartphones but some users will soon no longer be able to use it on their devices. Google is ending YouTube app support and access for smartphones running the Android 6 operating system. After the end of July 2026, Android 7 or later will be required to watch YouTube through the app on Android phones. It is important to note that YouTube will not suddenly stop working on affected phones nor will all data be deleted. Instead, phones running Android 6 will gradually begin experiencing problems. When users open the app, they may see a message saying “Switch to YouTube” after which they will be redirected to the mobile YouTube website through their phone’s browser. The main reason for this change is that YouTube is constantly being updated while new features may not work properly on older operating systems. For this reason, Google is ending YouTube support for Android 6 smartphones. If you are using an older Android phone and lose access to the YouTube app, you can still watch YouTube through its website using a browser. Another solution is to switch to a newer smartphone that supports the YouTube app.
