Listen to the Podcast:
Instagram is a free photo-sharing app with which users can apply photo effects like filters, frames, and retro and vintage colors; then, they can share the photos on different social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr. Here, we will discover the top Instagram alternative app for your PC and mobile.
Instagram was initially designed for the iPhone and is now available for its iPad and iPod siblings with iOS 3.0.2 or higher and can be downloaded from the App Store and its website. In early April 2012, an Android version was released and is available for download from Google Play.
But what happens if we want to use other applications with similar functions? Do they exist? The answer is undoubtedly affirmative, and not only alternatives in the form of mobile applications, but we also find the best Instagram alternative app we can download and install on our computers.
Instagram alternative app: 6 top suggestions
Below are 6 top suggestions for an Instagram alternative app for your PC and mobile device.
1. Pixlr-o-Matic
With more than 100 filters, 280 compositions, and 200 different frames, Pixlr-o-matic allows us to give up to five million different finishes to our images. This complete application will enable us to edit our photos with great detail. Its social component allows us to share our creations on social networks and services like Facebook, Dropbox, Flickr, or by email. Its multiple photo retouching options make Pixlr-o-matic one of the best free Android apps with a PC version.
2.StreamZoo
Although somewhat more limited than the previous one concerning the possibility of combining filters, frames, and image formats, Streamzoo has the incentive to work perfectly as a photography social network autonomously, #hashtags and @users included. This point is crucial because it led Instagram to success, at least before Facebook bought it and changed its user policy. The social network created by Zuckerberg is one of the many where we can show our creations on Streamzoo, such as Twitter, Google+, Tumblr, or Flickr.
