How to Get to Direct Messages On Instagram
To send your very first DM on Instagram, take a picture as you generally would. You could apply all the same filters to "DM photos" as you could with all various other Instagram blog posts. When you're ready to send it straight to a person (or a team of people)-- tap NEXT customarily.
From the Share to menu in the direction of the top of the screen, faucet DIRECT (see # 1 in screenshot below). Currently tap inside the Write a caption ... window, and also kind out your message (see # 2 in screenshot below).
When you're done composing your message, faucet OK.
Now scroll through your checklist of Instagram contacts as well as touch the circle beside their name so that an eco-friendly "check mark" appears. KEEP IN MIND: you could select more than one recipient if you intend to share a message or picture with a group of individuals.
When you're ready to send the picture as well as message, faucet SEND TO (NAME).
When they open up Instagram, they'll be presented with a notification on the "mailbox" symbol as highlighted in the screenshot listed below.
Upon tapping that mailbox, they'll see that a brand-new message as been sent out from you.
When they tap the message, it's presented to them in the style illustrated listed below.
From here they can respond to your message.
If/when they do, you will certainly have a notification icon in your mailbox.
The "blue bubble" (see screenshot) highlights that the picture has been discussed (and the length of time ago).
When you tap the 'response' in your mailbox, you'll be have the ability to view their response, and carry on the 'conversation' if you 'd like.
That's it!
