<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:center"><em>Instagram is now making it easier than ever to bring back deleted posts</em></p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">By providing app users with a brand new “recently deleted” feature, Instagram is now making it easier than ever to bring back deleted posts. Thanks to the feature, you can now review content you have deleted, including videos, photos, IGTV videos, stories, and reels, as well as restore them if you want. </p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Instagram is positioning this new feature as helpful against hacks, especially if hackers take control of an account and then start deleting content, according to The Verge. Starting February 2nd, users of this platform will have to confirm they are the account owner through either email or text in order to delete permanently or restore content.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Deleted items will be kept in the folder for 30 days. After that point, they will be automatically removed if not touched. However, deleted stories are the exception since they’ll only stay in the recently deleted section for only 24 hours before they are permanently deleted.</p>
