Meh meh meh. Have vignette, no need for instagram.

I dont get instagram. Maybe it's because I dont have an iPhone but Android has cameras (with filters if you insist on using them).

My camera filters and Retro Camera app do me fine on my Desire HD.

Zascar

Maybe it's just the photographer in me but none of the android ones I have tried as as good as the instagram filters

ED E

Its also important to note that they expand the featureset every week or two as well as bug fixing. Its a VERY close tie with Titanium for best paid app. Only gripe I have is long boot times, but its rarely an issue.

If you didn't have a camera could you produce photographs?

So you get annoyed at people with cameras that have built in software to add effects.

You're ok with people having a certain amount of technology but not too much.

Don't like that there's no preview on vignette. Usually mess around with camera zoom fx or for quick and simple snap bucket.

I get annoyed with every single picture uploaded to facebook/twitter/plus having a pointless filter no matter if its food or sh!t on a shoe

Have to agree, know a few particular offenders. Filters are fine, but they get very tiring when applied to every single shot.

Defiriend them.

Fly with a flame thrower approach so

And I dont. Its an opinion related to the relevant topic of this discussion. ie: Instagram for Android means more photos with filters which im not looking forward to.
You know, the way this entire website works? Different points of view?

Installed remotely on my HD from here moments ago, works fine, try again Slunk, phone rooted and running Icecoldsandwich

longshanks

Its giving me serious jip here also

robo

I initially installed it & it wouldn't work, so I uninstalled & tried again. It worked. Am using a HTC Desire.
The only issue I have with it, is that people will think that I am using an iPhone, which I will never own!

Slunk

For some reason when I go to play store in phone its not compatible but went on laptop and installed that way.
I thought there would be more options for the pictures. Ah well

"sign" up to use a camera app, no thanks

In fairness, it's a service not a "camera app". If you just want to take photographs for yourself, use your phone's camera app.

It's like complaining you have to "sign" up to Twitter to use a note taking app.

They should stick to school. That should help them to improve their vocabulary. Almost every comment has "eww" in it!

BionicRasher

iPhone users think they own the world:D

Have a look at this great Twitter feed
Douchey retweets about douchey iPhone users

Mr E

Some funny stuff there.

Fact: Steve Jobs is a legendary genius. Fact: The person who made androids is clearly to of no importance since we don't know their name.

It should be called: "Taken with iPhone or with a disposable camera?"

What are all these slightly blurry pictures doing in my Instagram feed? Are people drunk at 9am? Oh.

iPhone people don't worry all the android people won't be on instagram that much their battery life will die after they post 1 picture lol!

So you Android losers got Instagram now?? Smh..Now I know how male-supremacist felt when women were first allowed to vote...

Aye but is this Instagram **** Dat serious Doe lol y'all ugliness just accessible to everybody now

god's toy

what would really piss em off by making sure all your pics have 'Posted by an android user' in them.

ED E

And this is why I see people with an iPhone and think "W@nker!"

Atomic Pineapple

No surprise really Apple pray on the vain.

Its like a bunch of Harley and Honda owners, same crap, different hobby, same bitching

Nearly every photo I try to share on Instagram it says is too small, what the f*ck is that all about?? Using a Samsung Galaxy S2.

Have you changed the resolution in your camera settings? and/or uploading old pic that were taken off another device?

Kenny Logins

The iPhone needs an app like Instagram, and that's why it is so popular, but Android has arguably better camera apps (Vignette, Magic Hour etc.) that can output to the share menu or even another app for further processing, rendering Instagram a bit pointless really..

They can keep it.

See they have now updated the app to fix reports of pics being too small.

I'm wondering what the fuss was about? I mean I can only see a hand full of filters. I was thinking there were loads!

Same here, many other camera apps I already had installed have more and I can change the border style, I think instagram have build up a community and thats the only reason its so popular.

PogMoThoin

It's pretty crap compared to what's already available, like Camera FX etc.

Then that got me thinking, it's probably raved about because it's so basic, suits the iPhone user not to have too many options, they're not used to them

BionicRasher

Now I am sure I dont want to use this - as if it wasnt annoying enough already its now part of the FB empire - as the Apple boys would say - Ew

Fix'd now

Is it just me or is it a bit **** the way it handles and shares photos? When you share it only shares the link and not the photo. What a pain. I can go in through my gallery and share it that way, but I also want the photos I have taken to automatically get uploaded to my dropbox "Camera Uploads" folder, but I have to do it manually. Any way around this?

Is that not the point? Instagram is more of a social network than an app, but people think of it as an app. They want you to visit the site.

Only discovering this myself now, apple nut huggers can keep it they don't even have a browser interface. The filters are nice but as said there are many other apps that do the same without the social networking I have no desire for..... though their filters are ever so slightly better :mad:
