FAQ

-> There is no picture upload

First and most asked question :-) Yes, that is what also the description of the app is saying. I guess you read it? :-) But I'll try my best to change this and offer picture upload in the future. It won't be tomorrow and not the day after tomorrow. But hopefully picture upload will be possible sooner or later. Or it won't get in the app at all - This mainly depends on Instagram. I will try my best and keep you up-to-date with this thread or within twitter. Follow flwittmann on Twitter for news.

-> Is this for real?

Yes. The dream of a native client for Instagram just became reality. I'll try to offer the best possible Instagram experience you can imagine on a Sailfish powered phone! This app is adfree, open source and hopefully you think this app is awesome.

-> This app is awesome!

Thanks! Glad you like it - Wanna make me smile with a small donation? Many smiles could lead to a better app ;-)

-> This app is bullshit / not working / not awesome enough

Now that you're here and reading this, you have the chance to give feedback. I'll try to answer it and improve the app when possible, to make you think it's an awesome app, too.
