Right now, Instagram is a hot topic. After he was taken over by Facebook for a billion dollars, his followers are looking for the alternatives of this photo sharing website. Also, there has suddenly been an explosion of apps that provide some extra features on top of the normal feature. We found the following interesting alternatives by looking at the results of sites similar to instagr.am.
hipstamaticapp.com
Hipstamatic is a very popular app and has been around since 2009. In 2010, Apple even named it app of the season! Photos not captured while using this app cannot be edited in Hipstamatic. This is its only drawback. The standard of the filters is what really sets Hipstamatic apart from the countless other vintage-looking apps. The app offers several ‘lenses’, each giving a unique vintage look, with some ‘films’ and ‘flares’ also available to enhance the effects. The alternative of printing the image is also offered, which is not feasible with Instagram. The app, while aesthetically designed, takes some getting used to. Hipstamatic is not free like the other apps, and the basic edition of the app costs around $1.99 to download.
picplz.com
Service virtually identical to Instagram that allows you to share your photos via Facebook and Twitter with its app and offers a variety of filtering systems to put on top of the images that, again, are not different from Instagram. The two essential advantages of Picplz.com are that even though Instagram degrades the quality of your main photos, Picplz retains the initial quality. This makes a substantial difference when viewing images on larger screens or when publishing. The next benefit of Picplz.com is that, unlike Instagram, they have a powerful web existence from where you can review your photos with an online photo album called Flipboard that organizes the images together in a nice and interesting way.
dailybooth.com
Dailybooth encourages people to have a great discussion about their life in photos. Overall, it’s a very Instagram-like app, but like Picplz.com, Dailybooth also has a solid website for viewing your own and your friends’ archived images. The main difference between them is possibly their way of thinking: while Instagram users will search for fascinating things that look attractive with a filter on, Dailybooth users take advantage of their product by using it as a journal that archives their daily regimens.
flickr.com
While Flickr is more recognized as an online service for maintaining high-resolution photos, Yahoo! exposed its first Flickr Android app in September 2011 that had many filter systems similar to Instagram’s. This app includes an activity stream to ensure you can see your friends’ latest photos in real time and browse through all of their previous outfits and picks, plus your own. Just like with Instagram, you can see likes, comments, and it’s also possible to look at a map to find out exactly where the images were captured. Just like with Instagram, photos can be shared on Facebook and Twitter. Unfortunately, the filter systems are not yet accessible in the Flickr iOS app, so it’s not really the best alternative for iPhone users.
