Instagram has rolled out a new feature that will allow users to add pronouns to their profiles. Users will now be able to add up to four pronouns to their Instagram profile which will appear next to their Instagram username.

Users will have to fill out a form to have a pronoun added, in case it is not already available.

The social media platform allows users to choose to have their pronouns appear publicly on their profile or only to their followers depending on user’s preferences. An added option allows users to fill a form to add pronouns that are not available in the default list of options that Instagram provides.

Instagram has not yet confirmed the exact regions where the feature has been made available, but it has informed that the new feature is already available in a ‘few countries.’

Once the feature is available in your region, you will see a ‘Pronoun’s tab under Edit Profile’ section, where you can type out the pronouns you want and Instagram will suggest pronouns from the list of options available.
