Reviews of Instagram
Instagram Review
Comments: The overall experience of mine is good still lots of things can be improved when we talk about educating new users, creators etc.
Pros:
The intuitive user experience of the app and algorithm of the reels section
Cons:
Glitches of the app and low quality compression of reels
How can you not have an Instagram account?
Comments: My overall experience with Instagram can be described as dynamic and multifaceted. It is a vibrant platform that offers a visually engaging space for creativity, connection, and discovery.
Pros:
Instagram is an app that allows me to interact with others through likes, comments and direct messaging. This app also helps me to create a vast audience for business promotion and personal content.
Cons:
It is time-consuming and highly competitive.
Used to be better
Comments: The app has had me addicted with short form content and low-brow media which is not conducive to a healthy lifestyle. Advertising is prevalent and intrusive, and undesirable content is routinely recommended.
Pros:
There is a great deal of engaging content on the platform including entertainment and educational.
Cons:
Despite the good content, there is also a great deal of low-effort, rage-bait, and sexually explicit content which pervades the platform and greatly degrades the user experience.
Instagram for brand engagement , social media and reach to releavant audience from business community
Comments: overall experience was better than tiktok and this is best for businessses to increase the brand reach and also i have connect with multiple people and acocunts over instagram for business needs and received multiple enquires for our business from social media ads and this is the best platform for growing organically as well with low budget.
Pros:
Instagram reels are the best for the brand engagement and increase the brand awareness and get the relevant target audiences
Cons:
All the transition effects are not available on the desktop version and Sometimes after putting lots of hastags and relevant content and audio but still instagram is not giving us the best traction for each post.
The daily 'Gram
Comments: Quirks aside, my overall experince with Instagram is positive and rewarding. I use it daily to engage with my friends and followers.
Pros:
Instagram is visually appealing, easy to use, and allows me to share my photography work with my followers and other users on the app. I use features like the Explore page and Stories on a regular basis. Quick interactions through likes, comments, and DMs allow me to stay connected with my followers in an easy and interactive way.
Cons:
The algorithm is probably the worst feature of the app. It makes it difficult to see posts from friends while prioritizing ads and suggested content instead. Organic reach seems to be declining as well, unless you boost your post in order to reach more people, particularly your followers.
