The feature, which lets grammers post more than one image or video together as a story, lets you know who has watched it, just like Snapchat.

To do this, tap on the story and look for the eyeball image, then engage stalker mode.

Sadly, this beautiful addition is only for Stories and not ordinary posts — for now, at least.
