If you spend an inordinate amount of time ensuring that your filters are impeccably vintage or you are in too much of a haste to spend a minute to post a photo, then you will definitely like Instagram’s latest save draft feature.

Unlike Snapchat’s not-so-popular zaniness, Instagram’s tone and tools stimulated a lot of users to share more curated photos. But since it couldn’t save your photos midway through applying the right filters or effects, users needed to either entirely edit and share a photo else bye bye all changes.

Trying to create a post that’s just right? With the latest update, you can save as a draft & come back to it later. https://t.co/7lZ0eyNtBC — Instagram (@instagram) September 20, 2016

But no longer! Around six year after it launched and a month after testing the concept with some select users, Instagram finally came up with the save draft feature for all users.

The feature is now available on Android and iOS, without having to update the app.

Starting Tuesday, anyone can now save a draft of their posts or photos to come back to it later. The company first tested the feature in July and now has made it official. There’s a new help section that explains everything. All you need to do is just select a photo, add an effect, filter, caption or a location to it, and then just go back to the edit step and tap the back arrow to prompt the ‘save draft feature”.

Of course, every indecisive Instagrammer will find the feature handy, but the biggest treat might go to the social media managers who can now queue up a number of posts in drafts.

If you don’t see the new save draft feature on your device yet, give it some time.

Similar to the feature’s test phase in August, Instagram is most likely rolling out the new feature to groups of users at a time.

Whenever you want to return to your draft, just tap on the Camera icon like you do for starting a new post. Now tap on Library. All of your saved photos will show up under their own new section at the end of the screen.

In short, the new save draft feature by Instagram is a most welcome treat and rejoice for the social mavens!
