Double tapping the filters shows an intensity slider that shows thumbnails of how photos will look like, Techcrunch reported.

The new filter system will roll out to all iOS and Android users.
The option is exactly like Instagram's filter selector.

The intensity of the filters can be adjusted with a slider that is revealed by a double tap.
