Instander Apk enables one to access lots of advanced features of Instagram that are not available otherwise. And if you do enable developer mode in Instander, you can have even more features and modify the app according to your will and creativity.
Developer mode consists of many options. Such as you can create application shortcut, camera shortcut, manage sandboxes, video debug settings, push notifications and quick promotions etc. You can configure any feature and utilize many other customizable settings also.
Remember if you don’t know much about app working and developer settings, you should not engage with these advanced options.
Normally when you install Instander Apk the developer mode is disabled by default. You can turn it on by navigating to Instander settings. But simply turning it on does not show up its functions.
There is a catch to access all developer modes’ customizable options. First of all, download the Instander Apk latest version or update your existing version to the latest one. Then you can access all developer options as described below:
After this, you will notice Instander developer options are still not showing. To see all of them you just have to long press the home button at the lower left corner. Keep the home icon pressed for 2-3 seconds and Instander Developer Options will appear on screen. Here you go to play with the app, Good luck!
Yes, it’s safe if you understand completely what options you are going to enable and which function of the app will be affected. If you blindly play with multiple options, the app’s functionality may be altered inappropriately.
Once you have altered it too much, Maybe you have to reinstall the app to reset all of its features. Instander may also crash when you opt for too many customizations. So, only enable or play with developer options if you know the app’s working or development.
Here are some easy and commonly used features that you can customize via Instander developer mode. These are best settings according to my usage and experience.
You can find these settings under the section titled as “MetaConfig Settings & Overrides”.
These options are available in version 17 and above.
1. Schedule posts with Developer Options
You can schedule posts just like in YouTube. This option is not available in simple Instander settings. You have to enable it from Developer options as mentioned below:
Once you have enabled the schedule post setting in the developer options, you will have a schedule post option while uploading any new post. Follow these steps to schedule your new post for later any time:

4. Interactive emoji reactions
You can react to a post with emojis in two ways:
Direct response
Just like in WhatsApp emoji reaction, you can react to any post or message by just pressing long that message. A pop-up of commonly used emojis will appear and you can send any emoji quickly from the list.
Message response
You can see others’ reactions too against any message in the group.
5. Forward message limit
You can limit your message not to share further. If you limit your message to only 2 times further forward, your message cannot be sent to anyone after two times being forwarded.
6. More detailed page
You can create a new page to represent more details on anything according to your will. Once you have a customized detailed page of your choice, there will be a detailed set of information along with each post in the feed and messages as well.

Under this option, you can modify the way of messages to prevent accidental calls.
8. Collaborative collections
Under this option, you can customize your sharing of reels, media and posts to your desired set of audience. You can choose who you want to show your shared data.
9. “Discord-like” slash commands
There is no need to remember all necessary commands to interact with a certain function in the Instander. Like in discord, You can just put a forward slash “/” and a list of commonly used functions and commands will appear. Just choose the one you were looking for.
10. Search a messages
You can go for search in the messages only. Just choose in “thread content search” option and search what you want to be searched within the messages.
11. Change Logo
You can choose a logo of your choice and replace the existing one. Select this setting under the option “direct interop rebrand”.
You can also disable reels with the help of Instander developer options. Here is how you can turn this option on:
There are always positive and negative aspects of everything. So are for the Instander developer options too.
Yes, you can turn your app to normal anytime. Just go to settings and turn off “Developer Mode” Your app will behave normally as earlier. If you feel some changes have not recovered you can reinstall the new Instander.
Most of the time you face none of the problems but you may face unexpected app behavior sometimes. Like voice issues, increased battery drainage, audio issues, or any other issue depending on the Android device and app version.
To avoid any issues as per my experience, I recommend using Android version 9+ and Instander’s Latest version.
In conclusion, I would say that enabling developer options in Instander can be exciting for those who understand how it works. It lets you customize your Instagram experience in many ways.
However, if you’re not familiar with these settings, it’s best to avoid them to prevent any issues with your app. Remember, you can always turn off developer mode if you want to go back to the regular Instander. So, enjoy exploring, but proceed with caution!
Good Luck!
