How to use Quick Replies for Instagram DMs

Hey everyone. Instagram has a new update, that lets you do quick replies right in your direct messages in your DMS. I want to show you how to use it in this video. If it's your first time here, I make it easy to follow tech and social media videos every single day of the week. So please consider subscribing, let me jump into an account here and show you how to do it.

First things first, you have to have a business account to take advantage of this. Quick, DM reply. Let me show you that first. So let me go to a personal account here. So for a personal account, to turn into a business account, this won't really affect that much on the outside, but you'll have some new tools to work with, press the three lines on the top right and then go on the bottom two settings. Now settings always change where they put settings is always changing, but in order to change it to a business, go to accounts here, and on the bottom, you'll see, switch to a business account. You see that you could go ahead and press that and go through this process to switching it to a business account.

I've got a complete video on this. If you're interested, I'm going to exit out of here and just go to one of my other accounts. That's already a business account. But that's how you make a business account to start with, to get this quick reply option. Now, on a business account, press the three lines and go to settings.

Same exact way on the bottom of the page you go to setting and here, if you scroll down, you'll see this new business settings option. Now, if you don't have a business account, you won't have it. So you have to convert once you do the business accounts should have this quick reply option. Go ahead and press that and here you could respond instantly with a new quick reply. Let me just go ahead and press that and this is how a quick reply works. You create a shortcut and then that shortcut pools a longer message. So if someone follows you, for example, follow thanks and this shouldn't have any white spaces, so it should be one word here.

So follow thanks and then I could type out my messages. So I just went ahead and typed out my full message here. Basically a call to action to the website and once we're done here, we just have to press save on top. So now we have a quick reply. I'll show you how to use it. If you want it to add more, you can press the plus sign and add another.

You could have as many as you want here. So now let me show you how that works on the VM. So now I'm going to go to the homepage and I'm going to click the airplane to go to my DM here and I'll just go ahead and message myself here. So this is a different account on messaging that I own. I'm going to write, follow.

Thanks. That's my quick reply. You see how it says insert quick reply. So I could just go ahead and tap that and he just typed up my full message. So I don't have to do it every time I could do this with three letters, for example, or I could do it when people message me and I want to tell it to be right back.

I could put BRB and it will put a longer message and I could go ahead and press send. So now that I send that look, it has a call to action even to take you directly to the website because I put the website there. So this is a really great way. When people respond to your message, you, you could just go ahead and do that quick follow-up message here on a business account and give them a call to action, or just basically thank them or whatever it may be in your case.

So that's all it takes to do a quick reply in your DM. I hope you found this useful. Please give it a like, and subscribe to this channel for daily social media videos and I'll see you next time. Thanks for watching.
