Striking up a conversation on Instagram just became as easy as slapping a sticker on your Story.

Instagram revealed today that it has added a new feature called Question Stickers that gives users a new way to ask and receive questions from followers so you can get more acquainted with each other.

Adding Question Stickers is just as easy as adding a poll, GIF, or music to your story. To start, tap the sticker icon in the upper right corner after taking a photo or video. Select the ‘question’ option. Then type out your prompt and stick it wherever you like. Now share the post to your story and friends will see the sticker.

Viewers can tap on the sticker to reply. You have an unlimited amount of responses too right from the sticker.

Replying to a question sticker is different than sending a DM though. Responses are shown in the story’s viewer list. You can then answer which questions you want by tapping them to create a new story. The question and your answer then appear in the next story. The username and photo of the person’s question you’re answering is kept private from other followers.
