Instagram to shut down standalone IGTV app for longer videos

Instagram has announced it will no longer support its standalone IGTV app that served as Instagram's long-form video platform. "We will focus on having all videos on the main Instagram app," Instagram said. Instagram ditched its IGTV (short for Instagram TV) branding in October 2021 when it combined IGTV's long-form videos and Instagram feed videos into a new format.
