The company has added more tweaks suggesting it's expected to make a public release.

Right now, Instagram's main feed shows you new posts from accounts you follow, plus suggested posts from hashtags and other accounts. This new feature lets you decide what you can see, whether that's only from people you follow or those you marked as favourites.

Twitch is now accessible on the Nintendo Switch

Twitch has finally come to the Nintendo Switch, allowing you to watch live streams on this handheld. You will get the same functionality available on other consoles, like on-demand videos. The app is for watching streams but not for streaming. After all, the device doesn't have a camera, and you'll need to route video through a PC to create content with it.

Amazon Prime Video app on iOS gets clip sharing feature

Amazon

Amazon has added a new clip-sharing feature to its Prime Video app in the US. This will let users who want to share favourite moments from select Amazon Original shows. As Engadget pointed out, the feature's limitation might have something to do with any rights or licensing issues. Right now, it's available for season one of The Boys, The Wilds, Fairfax, and Invincible, with more shows and movies to follow. Those with access to the feature can access the Share a Clip option, where the app will pause the video and make a 30-second clip of what you just watched. You can view the video before you share it.
