Instagram BETA for Windows 10 Mobile: How many times will it crash?

2016-03-07
hey Windows Phone fans now this might be one of the most exciting app announcements we've had in quite a while if you've been using the instagrams chances are pretty good you've been using this terrible old beta app which is woefully behind the Instagram curve and and really you should be using six tag if this is what you've been using instead but for Windows 10 Windows 10 for mobile we finally got word that the Instagram beta that supports Windows 10 is finally available you can get it from the Microsoft Windows app store I'm going to take a second to sign-in now you don't get to see my password it looks like we've got the first official big-time port from an iOS app so thank you for using Instagram windows beta if something isn't working get feedback okay that's great thanks Instagram and we're gonna slide through here scrolling performance is really choppy on this Lumia 950 but everything is in place in the way that we would expect to see it from using the iOS version of this app so this is on home if I go to my search options we need your permission yes and we can explore posts again lots of little twitches and lots of little hanging moments they can go into people that have liked my photos and I'll just tap on my most recent pic got some decent likes going on in this macro shot that I took okay and then let me see my stat so this is my actual page here and man yeah it really does pull this slow I'm going to come up to my little gear icon here and see so I can find Facebook friends find contacts and in my profile all of these settings look like they're super iOS II you know real quick let's just see what it looks like when we want to capture or upload information oh we do have support for video so that's pretty exciting but it's taken a sec to find my library no there's nothing going on here let me back out again oh dang it lost it alright let's try that again so we're gonna pull this so that's one of the most recent videos I shot it it looks like it already has support for oh nice it does it already has support for wide wide screen shots if you want to upload sixteen by nine I can go ahead and stop that so we just want to do take a photo we can just take a photo if we just want to do video we can just do video let me go back in and see if I've got a picture on this oh I've got old pics of my little baby girl on here nope the app just crashed all right let me try and get back into that one more time Instagram has locked up so bad I'm gonna have to reboot this phone now and start fresh all right so I've rebooted the phone and I've got Instagram back up and running again and this is never gonna get old where every single time you start the app it's going to ask you to give you feedback so I might give it feedback that once I hit okay it shouldn't keep asking me to give them feedback all right so I want to see if we have all the same options for tools it looks like we will but I just need to select any photo that I can kind of get my hands on here and I think I just crashed the app again going to try and pull a photo from my library oh good thank you for using Instagram Veda if you know if anything's not working I'll totally give you a shout Microsoft that's awesome so I'm just gonna see if I can take a photo perfect alright so I took a photo of this crappy layout on my desk and up here we've got our different options so here are all the different filters Wow the filters take a long time to scroll and scan through if I want to do any kind of HDR is that for the lunians okay we can get out of that and lastly individual options and controls brightness contrast where is let's see oh we don't have structure alright there's no structure setting that's usually the one that takes the longest to load up on an android device let's just see so I've got contrast so let's see what happens with contrast those changes take a lot oh look at that look at that lag oh that's ugly discard that at it the Qualcomm 808 in here isn't a slouch it should be able to hang with this n it crashed again fired it back up and I'm going to thank you for using Instagram windows beta that's awesome yeah we've been getting reports that this wasn't actually ported over from the iPhone using the project Island wood that it was using Facebook's own algorithms or software for porting over piece of software and that's the I don't know if that's contributing to some of the stability issues that we're seeing but so far for right now I'm going to say that if you're still looking for a high-quality Instagram experience it's fun to play with this beta and it is really exciting to finally see some official update but this is way not-ready-for-prime-time but like I said this is progress this is positive momentum hopefully at some point we'll be able to get this really sleek and smooth you know loading that we see on the iPhone where when you try to upload an image it doesn't crash on you as always folks thanks so much

nail you can chat me up on Instagram and some gadget guy hey crash to get to scrolling uh and I will catch you all on the next video you you
