In the case of Android, in addition, this icon will appear without replacing the original of the application That is, you will suddenly find yourself with two icons that take you to Instagram. And it is that this second birthday icon is nothing more than a shortcut that you can place anywhere to enjoy its design. So you will have to rearrange icons and enjoy the new one while you hide the real one on any other screen on your mobile desktop. In addition, this new icon will be marked to identify itself as a shortcut of the Instagram application, with the original stamp. Still, it's a good way to remind your Instagram story.
At the moment Instagram will only let us enjoy these designs during this month of October as a celebration of her birthday. So the best thing you can do is start using them right now to remember past days of Instagram. Before the anniversary ends and they decide to remove this feature from the app.
Note that you only need to delete the new icon with a long press to get rid of it. Which will not lead to uninstalling the application. And, if you want to change it, just go back to the Settings screen to choose a different layout.
