The Broadcast channels functionality on Instagram has gone global. Users and creators alike can utilize this tool to communicate with their fans. The Broadcast channel’s users can respond to them or cast their votes in polls, but they are unable to contact the admin or creator. Along with text messages, users can publish photos, videos, and audio files.

How broadcast channel works?
A message requesting followers to join will be sent to the creator’s followers once they begin a broadcast channel on Instagram. Although everyone can see the channel’s content, only subscribers will be notified when new messages are uploaded. All of your followers will get an invitation to join the channel when you submit the first message in your broadcast channel.
