The visual look of Instagram was redefined and users were not happy.
Instagram has received a major update. Colors and fonts have undergone a revamp, but soon the entire user experience will be put to new heights.
Many may have noticed the first change to the changed colors of the Instagram logo, which are now even more intense. In addition, a new Instagram Sans font has been introduced.
– The font has been developed in collaboration with language experts so that it works in as many writing systems as possible, as the Arabic and Japanese bulletins say.
In addition, the Instagram interface is being renewed. There are similarities with Tiktok on Instagram: the application includes full-screen publications that are browsed in the same way as Tiktok publications.
When Instagram previously announced it was testing a new aspect ratio, many graphers were concerned. The big question, then, is what happens to the horizontal images and what your own profile looks like when the images are offered cropped to squares.
Updates may come to different users at different times. Thus, not all reforms may yet be visible. Make sure the app is up to date.
The story continues after the picture.
Users terrified
Updates have been received largely negatively if you go through the reviews of the Instagram app in the Google Play and App Store after the update.
Users have given the app a large number of one stars and said they are disappointed, especially with the new look. There have been a lot of reviews in a short time. We collected below examples of user opinions.
“It made sense to remove the entire app after a ton of upgrades. Why does Camaa have to imitate Tiktokk in everything? No one wants to use Instagram that way. Nice ”
“What a horrible update. The images are shaded and difficult to see, it is almost impossible to read the text. What was the idea here? No need to fix it!
“The current“ frame by frame ”browsing of the feed makes browsing images very slow. Poor reform ”
“The latest update is really bad, posts don’t fit on the screen, no translations are available, texts are read over images, etc …”
“New update = absolutely horrible”
“New interface, unsuitable, aesthetic not to continue”
“After the update, the new look is poor and unobstructed in usability.”
“The new view is absolutely awful. Old back !! ”
“The new update made the app significantly worse than the previous version”
