6tag
The problem between the application of photography and videos Instagram and the platform Windows Phone keep going. And it is that in the absence of an official version of this tool in the mobile operating system of Microsoft we must add the prohibition of using the brands Instagram, Insta and Gram in the names of the different alternatives that have arisen to alleviate the needs of users. However, these are not sufficient reasons for users of this platform not to enjoy similar content, almost copies, of this well-known application.A good example is 6tag, formerly known as 6tagram
This is an application of photography and video with the same possibilities as Instagram , but completely independent And, unlike other tools available for Windows Phone, 6tag does not publish on the well-known social network, but has created a own environment and the only place to share content, meet other users and find inspiration through photos and yes, also videos in the purest style Instagram Without forgetting the filters and options for editing
All you have to do is create a user account by registering a name, email and password.After that, it is possible to start using all its functions. All this through a design and visual aspect that respects the lines of Instagram but presenting own characteristics of the most interesting and practical. Thus, the first thing you see as soon as you access it is a feed or wall where the images and videos of the users you follow are displayed. Here, in the same way as the original application, it is possible to rate and comment on said contents, however, the extra feature offered by 6tag is to do it with just flip the desired photo or video. Thus appears the possibility of giving me like (heart), comment or, even, download it to the gallery of the terminal.
Highlights of 6tag, above all, the introduction of the possibility of record videos In the same way as Vine or Instagram, you just have to hold the screen to capture, being able to release to create different shots and change the frame. It is also surprising that, in the field of photography, 6tag shows thesame filters as Instagram, finding their names and effects when customizing the captured images, just before sharing them.
All this accompanied by a good selection of features that, although not surprising for being an imitation of Instagram, do allow you to replace the needs of Windows Phone 8 users. A good example is the geolocation of the photos to position them on a map and know their origin, apply blur effects and control features such as brightness, pin image categories to the home screen of the terminal, etc.
In short, a very complete application that arises to fill the needs of users, even if it does not allow them to participate in the community of Instagram per se. A good alternative for those who don't want to be limited to photos and want to create videos The good thing is that 6tag is fully downloadable free Available through Windows Phone Store
