For Instagram users who are more on the shy side, the social media app is working on a way for them to be a bit more private with their posts.

Head of Instagram, Adam Mosseri, announced on Thursday that a feature is in the works that will allow those users to limit exposure to their posts.

In addition to that, the company is also working on a way for users to re-order the posts on their profile grid.

"We know creative expression can feel intimidating, especially when posting something to feed," Mosseri wrote. "To address this directly, we’re exploring a way to let you quietly post to your profile without broadcasting it to everyone’s feeds. We’ll also make it possible to re-order the posts on your grid. We hope this added flexibility over how and where your content shows up helps you create and share without added pressure."

Mosseri touched on trial reels, as well, which has been made available to all users.
