There are many languages around the world, but unfortunately even in this day and age, not all of them are supported when it comes to technology. This means that native speakers in certain languages will not get support when it comes to apps, websites, services, and more, although thankfully this is something that is changing moving forwards.

The good news for some Instagram users is that the company has recently announced that they’ll be adding more right-to-left language support, which means that those who read/write Arabic, Hebrew, and Farsi will have no problems using Instagram to publish and look at posts written in their native language.

According to Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger, “I’m proud of our efforts to make Instagram one of the most inclusive and diverse platforms in the world. With this update we hope even more Arabic, Hebrew and Farsi speakers are able to use Instagram to connect with the people and interests that matter to them.”

However the only shortcoming to this particular update is that while users can see posts in these languages, users won’t be able to translate them just yet. Instagram has a built-in translation feature but it seems that it won’t work with these languages for now, but we suppose it could come at a later date.
