Every now and then, Instagram is working on new features to boost users experience. Presently, the Meta-owned photo-sharing app is rolling out two new features, Rage Shake and Carousel Deletion. The Rage Shake feature will allow users to make a complaint immediately by shaking their phone and Carousel Deletion will let you delete individual photos from a carousel after it has been uploaded.

Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram, announced these two features in a video posted on his Twitter account. Mosseri stated in the video that users will be able to quickly notify the company of any issues and problems they encounter while using the app.

For the unversed, Instagram already has an option of reporting issues in the app. Users can go to Settings and tap on Did something go wrong? feature to report issues with the app. To complain about an issue manually, users can go to Settings, then help and then tap on the report a problem. But with the Rage shake feature users can simply shake their phone which makes it easier to report a problem.

Shake to Report is a similar feature that already exists in applications like Facebook, where users may report technical issues with the app by shaking their smartphone, along with a setting to turn off the feature. Snapchat also offers a similar feature in which users may report an issue by shaking their smartphones. The ‘Rage Shake’ feature will be available in both Android and iOS but currently, this feature is only launched for US users.

Another feature allows users to remove a single image from a gallery on their feed. The function known as “Carousel Deletion” will provide users with the ability to delete a single image from the carousel. Instagram users will be able to delete images by clicking the three-dot menu and then swiping to the image they wish to delete. The new feature will display as a trash symbol on top of the menu. After deleting a single image, users can click “Done” to save.

In a video, Mosseri referred to this as the “finally feature”. He stated that the function has long been requested by users and that it should have been available much sooner.

A renowned tipster, Evan Blass, has provided enthusiasts with an early look at the design and colour choices of the Samsung Galaxy M35, ahead of its highly anticipated debut in the Indian market. The smartphone is set to arrive in three distinct colour variations – grey, light blue, and dark blue, which show striking similarities with the Galaxy A35, suggesting a possible rebranding strategy by Samsung.

The leaked image showcases the Galaxy M35 with a vertically aligned triple rear camera setup, positioned at the top left corner alongside an LED flash integrated into what appears to be a plastic back. The Galaxy M35 introduces a sleeker and more modern look with a hole punch selfie camera cutout, departing from the water drop style notch seen on its predecessor.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy M35 is expected to boast a substantial 6000mAh battery capacity, surpassing its counterpart, the Galaxy A35, which contains 5000mAh. This enhancement in battery power indicates Samsung’s commitment to delivering extended usage durations for its consumers. 

Moreover, specific specifications are yet to be confirmed by Samsung, but reports suggest that the Galaxy M35 could feature a 6.6-inch display and run on an Exynos 1380 chipset paired with 6 GB of RAM, ensuring seamless performance for users across various tasks and applications. 

Despite bearing a resemblance to the Galaxy A35, the leaked image also highlights subtle differences between the two models, notably in the design of the volume and power buttons, as well as the location of the SIM tray. Such nuances indicate the potential distinction in user experience and functionality between the two devices.

As excitement grows for the upcoming release of the Samsung Galaxy M35, fans and tech enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for more information from the company about the phone’s specifications, price, and when it will be available. Stay tuned for more updates in the days or weeks leading up to the official unveiling of the Galaxy M35.
