Anup ShresthaMarch 31, 2019

You may be well aware of what Instagram is actually. Simply putting, Instagram is an online social networking app developed for sharing videos and photos from a smartphone owned by Facebook, Inc. It was created and launched by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger in October 2010 exclusively on IOS. A version for Android devices was released after a year in April 2012, followed by a limitedly featured website in November 2012 Instagram rapidly gained popularity after its launch in 2010 and now have 1 billion accounts active every month.

If you know all about Facebook and Twitter, Instagram is no different. Everyone who creates an Instagram account has a profile and a news feed. Let’s know the basics of Instagram before you create an account and get introduced to the immense world of Instagram.

When you post a photo or a video, it will appear on your profile. Other people who follow you will see your posts on their news feed. Likewise, you will see the posts of people you choose to follow. It’s pretty simple, right? It’s a simplified version of Facebook where you can interact with other people by following them, being followed by them, liking, tagging and private messaging. You can even save photos you see and like on Instagram. Instagram is compatible with both IOS and Android devices.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Instagram will directly ask you permission for access. If not, you will have to log into Facebook first. Link your Facebook and Instagram accounts. You’re done.
