Now that everyone has to remain at home for extended periods of time, any service that lets you connect with your friends has seen a dramatic rise in users. Snap Inc's Snap camera —an application that lets you use Snapchat filters on your video calls and Twitch streams— has seen a 10x rise in downloads. Browser extensions such as Netflix Party that let you watch Netflix with your friends have also gained a lot of traction. Now, Instagram has launched what it calls a 'co-watching' feature that lets you...browse Instagram with your friends?

To help people stay connected, we’ve launched media sharing, a new feature that allows you to view Instagram posts together with your friends over video chat. You can start a video chat by tapping the video chat icon in the Direct inbox or in an existing Direct thread, then view saved, liked and suggested photos/videos by tapping the photo icon in the bottom left corner in an ongoing video chat.
