Instagram is developing a "Friend Map" feature similar to Snapchat's Snap Map, allowing users to see their friends' real-time locations.
Users can opt-in to share their location with specific groups such as followers, close friends, or no one at all, with end-to-end encryption for location data.
The Friend Map would also allow users to leave short messages or "Notes" for others to see, potentially enhancing social interactions within the app.
