It seems that Instagram is testing different modes for Boomerang that includes tweaks to the way it works. New modes are set to include:
* Classic – The classic Boomerang we all know and love
* Hold – Pauses at the end of each loop
* Dynamic – Wiggles at the end of each loop
* Slowmo – Just like Classic, but slower
* Duo – Slightly slower than Classic, but not much else
* Duo mode 2 – Slightly faster than classic
Jane Manchun Wong has created a web-based demo so you can [see what these enhancements might look like][7].
As well as these enhancements, it seems that Instagram is also looking at other changes, such as the ability to share comments from posts. New Layouts are coming to Stories and you might be able to filter notifications as well.
