Instagram is an application that supports iOS, Windows Phone, and Android platforms, allowing users to capture their life memories in any environment, choose the filter style of their pictures (Lomo/Nashville/Apollo/Poprocket and more than 10 kinds of gum circle effects), and share them with one click to Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Tumblr, foursquare or Sina Weibo. Not only taking photos, but Instagram also incorporates many social elements in it, including friend building, replying, sharing and favoriting, which is the biggest value of Instagram's existence as a service rather than an app.
On App Store, Instagram’s rating is 4.7 out of 5.0, with 24,870,854 user reviews. On Google Play, its rating is 3.9 out of 5.0, with 147,171,141 user reviews and more than 1,000,000,000 installs.
It is worth mentioning that on the way to becoming the most used app in the world, Instagram has won honors that are very remarkable. Apple released the list of "Best Apps in App Store", and Instagram once won the "Best iPhone 6S App". World Brand Lab also released the list of "Top 500 World Brands" several years ago, and Instagram ranked 362.
The new version has a number of bug fixes. It gets bug fixes and performance improvements.
Mobile-based applications make it easier for people to participate, but Instagram allows you to enjoy the fun of instant sharing, allowing you to share your life with friends anytime, anywhere, and I believe this will be a trend that will change the way we live by using the popularity of highly intelligent mobile terminals.
Secondly, although sharing on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Flickr and Foursquare is not innovative, it has brought the Instagram into the limelight through more channels. Instagram can import more relevant friends to create a community atmosphere. And through the above social media channels, Instagram can also spread among people in the shortest time without spending a lot of money on promotion.
