Best social media! I recommend to the people that they should download this app and it's free! There something I am concern about, how do you even save images or videos? I just want the developer to add the active or notactive so we can see if ours friends are online. The massage should add more stuff like videochat, phonecall, stickers, etc to the future like facebook messenger. The video minutes to be very longer becuz I don't like the short minute of the video. Just adds more new things for the future and yeah!

First of all i love this app. But it's complete aggravation when you have gotten a new phone and install the app again but forget your password and trying to reset it is an absolute joke because it tells you none of your accounts are associated with your instagram account. Ive done everything it tells you too do and been locked out for over a week! Im very upset!!

I tried to add my other account and nothing works in it. It keeps asking me to retry to upload an image. I can't use search or anything but the account was activated. Then I logged out and logged back in and it had an error so I used the log in page rather than the app. After logging in it keeps taking me back to sign up. I sent a message for help over a week ago and not heard a single thing back.

I have been an Instagram follower since quite a long time. So I've followed people I don't remember following. When seeing the list of those we follow, I'd like to have an option to see whom we added date wise, from old to new or new to old. Will make it easier for us to filter those we don't want.
Every video always ALWAYS buffers every few seconds and you can't even watch a video fully, and it's really freaking irritating. Plus, you can't edit comments, which is also really irritating. Please fix these things. UPDATE: I changed my pagr to business, and it stopped letting me post any kind of comment or caption, so I took it off and went back to personal account. It still won't let me post any captions or comments on MY OWN POSTS!!! What the heck Instagram?? SECOND UPDATE: WHY CAN'T I POST TAGS ANYMORE?????? COME ON INSTAGRAM!!!!!!

It started deleting accounts I would make the same day I made them. As of today I can't get into my main page because I got logged out of it and the app will crash everytime I open it. Please help
I love having Instagram to brighten up pictures that might not have been taken in the best lighting! Makes pictures of my kids even better! I hate the news feed now though, I want to see pictures in real time when they are posted, I am missing some of my favorite instagramers new posts because the feed is so odd. Stop being like Facebook and go back to being good old Instagram!!
I hate having “suggestions for you" on the top of my list. We already know how to find friends. PLEASE ORGANIZE PHOTOS BY TIME, NOT POPULARITY!!!! Also, the new update for notifications is really annoying. I don't want that many notifications about people posting for the first time in awhile.
I am not able to tag a single person in my photo, while tagging, it simply shows the names of the pages i want to tag but by the time i click the tick icon on the top right, all the tags just disappeared. It's really frustrating. Please help me solving this.
Am I the only one who can't switch cameras when recording an Instagram Story video? I know you're supposed to double tap or press the switch camera button, but mine doesn't work? Is anyone else having this issue? Or is it just an android thing?
I love the tilt shift but it hasn't worked for ages... can't find anyone with the same problem anywhere on Google... I just get a little square that blurs in the top right hand corner... I haven't posted on instagram for ages because of this :( can anyone help fix... I've uninstalled & reinstalled loads of times. Really annoying!!!! Using Samsung s6 edge Update from what feels like years later.... still dont work!!! Look like instagram couldn't give a stuff!
Disappointed.. I was so excited about the newest feature (Boomerang and Free hands) but, whenever i post it a photo with Boomerang, it always *Eror, couldn't load. Retry?* and i clicked Retry, but doesn't seem to work. Please fix it. I really.. Really love this app so much. I will give 5 stars when its done. Btw, My Phone is ASUS ZENFONE 2 Laser With Android Lollipop
I think Instagram sux now! I'm not sure if it's because I have an android but every time I try to post a photo it won't let me it freezes everything!! It's a waste of time just a while ago I updated it but it's still acting dumb!!! I hate it! It doesn't work like it use to! It's frustrating! Don't waste your time on this dumb app!!
Actually it's a great app, but it freaks me out how banal things such as uploading a photo can be bugged so easily. Had a ton of problems lately with posting new pictures and adding information about them... I don't understand how something so basic can't already be fixed.
*I* should decide what I see on my feed. NOT you. Take that stupid algorithm out. Facebook is bad enough and I already got rid of it because of that. And of course, there's no support for multiwindow on Android 7.0 because why bother? iCrap devices don't have it... I also don't want a f**king SNAPCHAT CLONE you idiots. And a Dark Theme is long overdue...black themes make the photos pop out a lot more. Although it may not matter since I can't see the photos I want, just the ones you decide I should see...oh, and of course, now there's CENSORSHIP! YAY!
It doesn't let me change profile pic giving me error message that I am not connected to Internet whereas I can use all the other features so it becomes pretty useless as my friends won't find me because I have a blank profile pic Please work on it otherwise there's no point for me to use this app. Edit - After 2 years editing this, they have put on much work on this and it is now one of the most exciting apps around
I LOVE insta to death but I'm having problem uploading photo and video to my story. It always say "retry" and no matter how many I try it doesn't work. Pls fix it for me. PS: my phone model is samsung galaxy grand 1
Why can't I edit what I've posted?! I've posted and added a caption but when it was uploaded it didn't show the caption. I tried posting it again, but I keep getting an error. Then I tried posting it without the hashtags and it posted. We need to tag, you know?! Please fix this! This is getting more lame. For those who are reliable/responsible in updating this App's features, please, before you update, check it or test it first if there are no really errors.
I find instagram really good cuz I get to look at other artists work n also make some new friends but why can't I do live!?!? I've been waiting for quite a while n I've been seeing other ppl doing live but I still can't do it!!! Pls do something abt this....
Hate it! I can't go live on my Verizon Ellipsis 7 and I thought using my tablet would help. I updated it and everything, but still, nope. Deleting the app until the platform can be used universally.
I m using Instagram on my Xioami redmi note 3, in this phone the Instagram app crashes so many times.. I update the application but crash or not responding problem not solved
They deleted my account and I tried getting it back. They told me to send them some photos but they never got back to me and I never got my account back. Horrible customer service
My older videos state that there is no sound when I clearly know there is sound. Also app shuts down very often, no warning, it just closes. Dumb. No ones gonna read this
My apps crash after updated to 10.8.0 version. If I used boomerang mode than save it my IG app stoped unfortunately. When i used previous version there is no problem.
I love this app but ive recently been having a problem with logging in. It wont let me log in with any account i try using whether it is my friends or mine and im getting very annoyed from it because im not able to use instagram because of it. Please fix it. Ive written messages and reported the problem but i still have no feedback for it.
It's a cool app. But they're are too sensitive. They want to delete or sensor you for basically nothing. When someone or a hater reports anything on your page they would delete it without question or any review by an actual person.
After updated, my ig became very very slow, i cant open stories, my feed didnt appear just blur everything. I think its not connection problem because another app running well with this connection
cant log in. not accepting anything. cant log in with facebook. cant reset password because its not sending the email. gives error messages all the time. reinstall does not work. cleared browser history etc. rubbish app
My account got hacked, reported it to Instagram, reported the account as impersonation. Instagram deleted the account, and now keep saying my account got deleted for not following community guidelines. I reported the hacker! Why is Instagram punishing me for the hacker's actions?! Crap app. And the intrusions into private info after the latest update... Why did Instagram need access to my phone contacts, call records and SMS? Not recommended!
Ive had this app for years now and I have to say, its going to be a sad day when Instagram isn't as popular this is a safe place where I can talk to my friends and update people in my life and to have fun the Instagram stories are MWAH I love the update so much KEEP GOING INSTAGRAM...ftw you NEED this app
After the 7.0 Update, videos/stories won't play. Tried uninstall/install but still not working. After latest IG update videos still glitchy. One moment they work and the next they pause continuously. Timeline and popular tab.
I want the newest feed on top!!! It's driving me insane that the old feeds and latest feeds are all mixed up and I have to see the feed in different ways.
This app is brilliant because you can get in contact with all of your friends I found a really close friend on their that left our school and we have met up 5 in the past month definitely should go try it out and privacy option is available
Easier to interact with friends here unlike having cluttered facebook feed where your friends don't see your posts most of the time. Can't wait for live videos wish it would roll out quicker!!
Thanks to the latest Instagram update to its Algorithm, my feed is corrupt with pictures soley because they're "Popular in My Country". I could care less about other people aesthetic. That doesn't interest me, but now its all I see
It's just so messed up that my timeline isn't in chronological order anymore. I'm missing a lot of posts and I also get fewer likes... I hate this! I don't want to turn on post notifications for every single account, but obviously, I follow these accounts for a reason. I want to see their posts! Now I'm missing out on so many posts... Why do you get to select what I find interesting? I would really like it if there was an option to have your timeline in chronological order, the same thing about photo maps. I rarely looked at photo maps of others but it was kind of my diary, i could relive journeys I made ages ago. Why delete photo maps all together, you could make an option to disable it, if you don't like it?
Everything is fine. The videos just always refuse to play. And I know my internet connection is strong cause I don't have issues with other apps. And have uninstalled and installed it. Please you have to fix this!!!
Of course I love Instagram I wouldn't use it if I didn't like it. However many of my posts will not allow literary content. I've done everything I can think of to fix it and would change my rating for the fix. Frustrated!
Terrible. Not sure what it is or why it's in my phone, but it's impossible to remove. Hate bloatware. Only reason I gave it one star is because I couldn't give it zero.
