Reply to Instagram messages with pictures and video

Plus, now there's split screen!

Instagram users have a new means of expressing themselves via direct messages as of Thursday. They can now reply to shared Direct posts with images and video of their own.

The process is simple: Just hit "reply" and snap a selfie of the image you'd like to include. Instagram will automatically include a sticker of the original post for reference. Even better, users are now also able to create split-screen composite images wherein they might replace their heads with that of a bespectacled dog proudly declaring "it me".
