Youtube Test Similar Instagram Stories Features


Trend Stories introduced first by Snapchat continues to expand to other online services. Instagram, Whatsapp, and even Facebook itself already use it.

Later in November, Google's Youtube announced a similar feature called 'Reels'. However, this feature is now called Stories, and recently reportedly slid to more users as part of an extended trial.

Reported from GSM Arena, this feature will appear in the top bar in Youtube app. The format, according to screen capture results, looks similar to Instagram.

On Youtube, there is a red circle around the account avatar that has made Stories - it makes sense because the color used by Youtube is red. However, at this time other users cannot comment or reply to Stories, which are likely to be added in the future. To create a story, just select the "Add" icon at the top right, then select the "Story" option.

This feature is called still in the limited launch stage. Therefore, most of you may not be able to see this button.
