Instagram just got updated to let you take a trip down memory lane. Now the app wants you to know where you clicked your lovely pictures, besides merely adding effects.

The photo-sharing app rolled out its latest update with a new feature called Photo Maps that displays geotagged photos of your location on a map. Users do have the option of disabling geotagging in case their concerned about privacy issues.

Once users update to version 3.0, a new Photo Map tab is added to their Profile page. Users navigating through Photo Map for the first time will be prompted to select photos that have been previously uploaded using geotagging. From then on, they will have the option to enable or disable the feature when posting new photos by turning on 'Add to your Photo Map'.

Users will always have the option to edit their Photo Map at a later time with the help of an Edit button. Users can also explore Photo Maps of their friends by visiting their profile. Photos appear in a stack when viewing them in a specific location. Tapping on a stack, displays photos in a grid.

Besides Photo Maps, other features include infinite scrolling, which means the Load More button is now gone. Photos now appear bigger in agrid-layout and there's a larger textbox for adding captions.

Instagram 3.0 is available for download on iOS and Android devices from iTunes and the Google Play store.

Here's a quick walkthrough video of the Instagram's new Photo Map feature.
