How To Direct Message Someone On Instagram
To send your very first DM on Instagram, take an image as you generally would. You could use just the same filters to "DM photos" as you can with all various other Instagram posts. When you're ready to send it directly to somebody (or a team of people)-- faucet NEXT as usual.
From the Share to menu to the top of the screen, faucet DIRECT (see # 1 in screenshot below). Currently tap inside the Write a caption ... window, as well as type out your message (see # 2 in screenshot below).
When you're done composing your message, tap OK.
Currently scroll via your list of Instagram contacts and touch the circle beside their name to ensure that an environment-friendly "check mark" shows up. NOTE: you could choose more than one recipient if you want to share a message or picture with a group of people.
When you're ready to send the image as well as message, faucet SEND TO (NAME).
When they open Instagram, they'll be presented with a notice on the "mailbox" symbol as shown in the screenshot below.
Upon touching that mailbox, they'll see that a new message as been sent out from you.
When they touch the message, it's presented to them in the layout showed below.
From here they could reply to your message.
If/when they do, you will have a notification symbol in your mail box.
The "blue bubble" (see screenshot) illustrates that the image has been discussed (and also how long earlier).
When you touch the 'response' in your mailbox, you'll be have the ability to see their response, and continue the 'conversation' if you 'd like.
That's it!
