New changes are coming to Instagram creators these days. The social network announced over the weekend that a new set of tools that make it much easier to filter DMs will be coming to Instagram creators.

Thanks to the new tools, messages will arrive in a user’s inbox based on the controls they’ve previously set. Specifically designed for Instagram creators, the new tools will add the ability to sort and filter message requests by follower count, verified accounts, brands, creators, and more.
In addition to the new DM filtering tools, Instagram also added a new “Story Replies” folder that makes it easier to access story replies by putting them in one place. This is one of the changes that creators have been asking for all these years, and it looks like Instagram has finally decided to listen to the feedback and deliver.

Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram, recently explained the new changes in a post: “When you go to your request inbox, sometimes it can be really chaotic. So what we’ve done is add ways to filter those requests so you only see what you’re looking for. There’s a lot more to be done to improve the creator inbox and requests. But hopefully this is a step in the right direction.”
Creators will find “Sort & Filter” options at the top of their inbox, where they can choose to sort requests by date or number of followers the sender has. A few other options can be toggled on/off to suit different scenarios creators may have in mind, such as whether or not the account is verified or if it belongs to a creator/business.
