Visual Search

Instagram’s Visual Search feature will allow users to search for products in a shop that they might have come across in a post. Alessandro Paluzzi even shared images of how the feature will look like. 

Both Camera Search and Visual Search features will only make Instagram more accessible for shopping. However currently both of them are under work in progress (WIP) and will be released soon.
