explore page

Content discovery section

An explore page is a section of a social media app that displays content from accounts you don't follow, curated algorithmically based on your interests and engagement patterns.

The feature helps users discover new content and accounts: I found this artist through my explore page.

Most prominent on Instagram, but similar features exist across platforms.
