developer settings guide Part 2🫶
Musaib.
attention!!
be careful when activating some settings in the developer settings, no need to activate any settings that you don't know what it does. make sure you don't activate the wrong settings from this article, read carefully the name of the setting and the captions.
no need to activate all the toggles from a setting name unless it asks you to enable all the toggles. if some of the settings don't work, just disable them, all the features in the article were created by instagram, if something does not work, we will not fix it.
