Not long ago, the administration of the social network announced the implementation of a new feature – Rils. At the same time, a decision was made to change the standard graphic representation of the option call, designed to place personal publications in the form of videos. Some users do not know how to find a way out of the situation. As a result, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the existing features in order to restore functional capabilities.
Possible causes of the problem
First of all, it is important to understand that the Rails functional key may be absent in a registered user’s personal account due to a lack of software updates. It is also unavailable if an outdated version of the social network’s mobile application is being used.
There are other reasons that can have a negative impact on the considered functional capabilities. The main ones include:
- lack of updates for the operating system or use of an outdated mobile phone;
- regional distribution of updates;
- errors during the update process.
Another common reason for mobile phone users is the lack of sufficient free space in the memory. Therefore, if temporary data and files are not cleaned for a long time, the social network cannot update personal software, even with the required patch.
Owners of outdated smartphones have the right to check for new software and attempt to install it. Depending on the mobile phone used, it is necessary to go to the section for user settings and ensure uninterrupted high-speed internet connection. Further actions are performed by the smartphone in automatic mode – no difficulties were found during testing. After completion, an automatic reboot will be initiated, after which the changes take effect immediately.
How to restore the Rails button
Users are offered several options for getting out of the situation. These include:
- updating the social network;
- deleting and reinstalling the software.
Each option involves a clear sequence of actions. Therefore, the optimal solution would be to consider each specific situation separately.
Instagram Update
The sequence of actions is not difficult. The comprehensive algorithm of actions includes the following steps:
- Initially, the user needs to log in to their registered personal account. For this, the login and password previously provided are entered into the specially designated field – the standard login procedure.
- At the next stage, it is necessary to go to the section of entering personal user settings.
- From the presented list, the system requires selecting the section of available updates of the social network at the bottom of the page.
- If available, the automatic update button is displayed.
- The desire to initiate the update procedure is confirmed.
As a result of activating the considered function, the social network initiates automatic personal update. Users need to wait for the procedure to complete, after which they need to log in again. To exclude the risks of technical failures, it is strongly recommended to use high-speed internet connection to perform the task. The procedure is simple and takes a few minutes of free time.
Reinstallation of the application
To complete the task, you need to:
- Go to the official app store that is relevant to the mobile phone being used.
- Find the Instagram mobile app from the list provided.
- Press the delete button on the next screen.
- After completion, clear the cache.
- Go back to the app store and activate the function to reinstall the previously deleted mobile app.
After this, you need to log in again. As a result, the problem should be fully resolved.
