With its main office in Menlo Park, California, Instagram is an American social networking site for sharing images and videos. Additionally, it has locations in New York City and San Francisco. Mike Krieger and Kevin Systrom launched Instagram in 2010. On the site, users can directly communicate other users who are using iOS or Android-based devices, take and share photographs and stories, and use filters. Instagram said that it had 1 billion average monthly users in January 2020. Facebook bought the business in 2012 for $1 billion. In 2018, the business released the video-sharing app IGTV. Instagram founders Systrom and Krieger left the company in September 2018. After the founder left, Adam Mosseri was named Instagram's chief executive.
Instagram is a photo and vedio sharing social network service owned by American company platforms. The app allows users to upload media that can be edited with filters and organized by hashtags and geographical tagging. Posts can be shared publicly or with pre approved followers. Users can browse other users' content by tag and location, view trending content, like photos, and follow other users to add their content to a personal feed.
When Instagram first launched, it set itself apart by restricting content framing to a square (1:1) aspect ratio of 640 pixels, which matched the width of the iPhone's display at the time. This limitation was loosened in 2015 with the upgrade to 1080 pixels. Additionally, it included messaging capabilities, the ability to post multiple photographs or videos, and a feature called Stories that was comparable to Snapchat's major rival and let users publish information to a feed that was sequential and viewable by others for a 24-hour period. In January 2019, 500 million people daily used Stories.
Now a days Instagram has become a important for each and every person every person has been creating an account and using it 24 hours it has been effecting in our life. Restricting the age limit child or parent everyone is using Instagram alot. It is effecting very badly. Children are addicted to it alot and wasting their their by seeing the reels. And each and everyone are doing the reels and wasting time on social media. We can also use Instagram for advantages like we can see what is going on around the world and what is trending now a days.
