Instagram changes its design and becomes more agile on Android
Unsurprisingly, Instagram has also updated its app for the Android platform after doing it for iOS a few hours before The difference is that in this case there are no new features or possibilities for the user. Of course, the general aspect of this social network has been renewed almost completely, as well as its operation, achieving a more comfortable and agile experience for all devices on this platform .Something that many have been waiting for a long time.
This is how the version 5.1 of Instagram for Android is presented An update that touches on everything visual, but without forgetting to offer more comfortable and agile handling for users. And it is that, although there are no new features, a lot of work has been done to adapt the version of Instagram for Android to all terminals, regardless of the size of their screen , to generate the same user experience. All this with a simpler and flatter appearance, in keeping with the times and aesthetic lines of the moment.
Thus, what is most notable as soon as the application is updated is undoubtedly its renewed appearance. Changes that are somewhat reminiscent of the version of iOS 7, but betting on the scheme Holoof AndroidThat is, minimalism in its purest form. In this way, lines and buttons have been eliminated to create a much flatter appearance, where the blue and white color serves to delimit without the need for other elements. The images and videos continue to take advantage of the entire width of the screen, being able to always know the authorship of them thanks to the bar with the image and name of the profile that scrolls through each publication. Only one line separates one from the other as the user moves along the wall.
They also change the buttons to give to Like, commenta photo or report an image for misuse. And, as with the rest of the application, they are now simpler and are not located in a box. They appear directly as a shape, without even color, at the bottom of the comments. Something similar occurs with the tabs and the user profile section.Everything is much simpler and is presented on the background without flourishes, lines, or volumes.
All this is related to another important aspect of the application in general: its operation. And that is that the team Instagram has worked in the size that it occupies in the terminal, getting reduce it by half That also implies a simplification that is noticeable in a tool much more agile, capable of loading all the images of the profile in half the time, as well as the images and videos from the section Discover or the wall itself.
