Facebook confirmed to TechCrunch it has officially launched the new option.
Once you have synced your Instagram account with Facebook messenger, the app will automatically add contacts from Instagram and your Instagram username will become visible to other Messenger users.
A similar feature to this “connect Instagram” option was briefly available at the end of 2017, although it never launched to the public.
