Instagram for Android updated, now supports more devices

In less than a week, since Instagram has been made available for Android devices, developers have already issued an update for the popular photo sharing app. In the latest version of Instagram, which goes by the build number 1.0.3; several new features have been added . As per an announcement on the Instagram support page, this app can now be enjoyed on tablets and Wi-Fi handsets and can be installed on an SD card. This will certainly be beneficial for those who have limited amount of onboard storage on their devices. Apart from this, the update fixes some minor bugs that were present in the first version one of which included an audio mute bug that was prevalent during photo capture. 

STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

For those of you who do not know what Instagram is; it is a popular photo sharing application that was first launched in 2010. At the time of its inception, it was available only for iOS users and was mainly supported on iPhones or iPod Touches, but iPad users have used this version on their devices as well. Many Android users, since wanted a version of Instagram to be available on their handsets, too and the developers had stated that they would be making one for them as well. However, the development of this app for Android had taken quite long leading one to believe that it was not heading Android’s way after all.

We’ve been working tirelessly to make this new Android app a first-class mobile photo-sharing experience. We’ve been meticulous about translating the Instagram experience to the Android platform.
