STAY AWAY -Instagram nerf’d features, and the app wants to charge you even MORE $ for less features.
Review UPDATE: current version 4.0.1
Nothing works. DO NOT BUY. A complete waste of money.
——————————————————
Review version 3.1.2:
I am very pleased to see that the developer of this program reads these reviews and works to fix issues/features that users may have/want. As of this version, 3 of my 6 critical problems that I have expressed before have been resolved. The 3 that remain are:
1) If you decide to choose the menu-icon only option, then you have to click your way through a drop down menu to actually show the app window unlike every other menu icon which opens the main window on click.
2)The main window has trouble remembering size (primarily height).
3)I wish there was a way to load the program in a “Hidden” state, like most apps.
I have updated my review from 1 to 3 stars to reflect the changes and imporvements. A vast change because I believe the develpers took time and care in working out these kinks and making an overall VERY enjoyable instagram experience.
I believe this program would be rated higher if the above were fixed / implemented as well.

Initial Review version 3.1.0:
To be upfront and honest, I’ve just started using this app. It is feature rich and has more to offer than any other Instgram OS X app on the market. The problem I have is with 6 different things:
1) I keep getting the 5000 request error, without knowing why..
2) If you aren’t connected to the internet it notifies you of such, but offers a button to retry connection instead of just trying to reconnect like everyother app automatically does.
3) If you decide to choose the menu-icon only option, then you have to click your way through a drop down menu to actually show the app window unlike every other menu icon which opens the main window on click.
4) Don’t dare click the red (quit) button - it doesnt quit the app it just hides the main window, BUT unfortunetly you wont be able to view it by clicking the “Show Photodesk” menu selection - doesn’t work. Only fix is to force quit and start over.
5) The main window has trouble remembering size and location status on close.
6) I wish there was a way to load the program in a “Hidden” state, like most apps.
If these 6 things were fixed, my review would be a heck of a lot different.
