Instagram is reportedly accelerating its feature development, with leaks revealing three significant upcoming changes: user-controlled exit from Close Friends lists, a direct shortcut to “Manus AI”, and a potential new premium subscription tier.

• Users will soon be able to voluntarily remove themselves from someone's Close Friends list, with a confirmation warning that the user will no longer see their exclusive content.
• A new “Manus AI” shortcut has been spotted in the settings, suggesting a dedicated workspace for creators, possibly linked to Meta’s broader generative AI initiatives.
• A new paid subscription is rumored to offer advanced features like unlimited audience lists, follower insights, and “stealth viewing” of stories.
