According to Social Media Today “. . . Instagram is keen on providing tools on this front to maximize interest in group messaging use and boost engagement. It could also hold a level of appeal for brand use – though it is worth noting that Instagram Direct groups are limited to 32 people.”
The feature has not been rolled out to all users yet, but you can surely expect to see it appear in your Instagram message threads sometime soon.
