Instagram introduces ‘Superzoom’ just in time for Halloween<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Instagram introduces ‘Superzoom’ just in time for Halloween:- Instagram has introduced a new feature called “Superzoom” that allows users to create spooky videos just in time for Halloween.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like Boomerang, Superzoom lets you add adds a creative twist to your videos by gradually zooming in on one object, with dramatic music for added effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

So if you want to show off your Halloween make-up, for example, you can use Superzoom to zoom in on your face, while giving your best zombie impression.<\/span><\/p>\n

The tool can be accessed by updating to the latest version of the Instagram app.<\/span><\/p>\n

All you have to do is open the app, tap the camera icon in the top left hand corner, select Superzoom along the bottom, and tap and hold to record – or tap once to record a 3-second Superzoom.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can then download the clip or add it straight to your “Story” in Instagram.<\/span><\/p>\n

Superzoom isn’t the only Halloween-themed update Instagram has made this week. The Facebook-owned company has also added five spooky new face filters and a new sticker set.<\/span><\/p>\n

The filters include a vampire, a ghost and a zombie, while stickers include eyeball sweets, pumpkins and severed hands.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, rival social network Snaphat has teamed up with Netflix to launch a new eerie Stranger Things lens that transports users to the Upside Down.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first-of-its-kind world lens allows users to take a virtual walk around Joyce Byers’ living room, complete with new horrors and those familiar multicoloured Christmas lights.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as original elements from the first season – such as the letters on the wall – there are new components from the latest season added in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Will’s drawings, as seen in the trailer, lie on the floor as game Dragon’s Lair flickers on a screen in the background. A Demogorgon arm also reaches through the hole in the wall by a smashed TV.<\/span><\/p>\n

Users are able to interact with the various elements in the room, which can be brought to life by tapping on them as the theme song plays in the background.<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s also a new Snapchat face lens that mimics Eleven\u2019s nosebleed, and a third lens that lets you place the swimming pool where Barb went missing in Stranger Things Season 1 onto the floor of your room.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Stranger Things isn’t your thing, Snapchat has also teamed up with King, maker of the Bubble Witch Saga series of mobile games, to launch an exclusive Bubble Witch 3 selfie Lens for Halloween.<\/span><\/p>\n

Players can unlock the new lens by taking part in the Bubble Witch 3 “Trick or Treat” event, which gives them the opportunity to play collaboratively with each other for the first time.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can unlock magical rewards by helping Stella and new characters, the Tricksies, to collect candies.<\/span><\/p>\n

At various points within the game, players will find themselves taken out of the app and into Snapchat, for example allowing them to celebrate when they pass a friend on the Saga map.<\/span><\/p>\n
