Meanwhile, the photo-sharing app Instagram on Tuesday introduced an augmented reality (AR) filter “Share Your Light” feature to giving people a fun way to share their thoughts during the upcoming festivals. Launched ahead of Diwali, the AR filter is inspired by mandalas, diyas, festive lights, and colors.
Once you open the Effects Gallery, you can look for the effect using the “Festive Diya”. The effect is available in seven languages – English, Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu.
