Another Instagram option arrives in the form of #2InstaWithMassiveLove

Published by at

#2InstaWithMassiveLove is the latest addition to the upload-photos-to-Instagram app genre on Windows Phone. Viewing of photos on Instagram is supported by provider a wrapper around the Instagram mobile site, but this approach does mean that you will need to be already registered with the service (i.e. no sign up from within the app). Using the mobile site does make it possible to see view, like and comment on the latest photos in your stream, giving the app an advantage over its upload-onlr rivals.

Photo uploads to Instagram follows a step wise functionality (select photo, edit, add caption, upload), and appears to also be at leastly partially built around a proxy server, although there is support for Aviary's Photo Editor built in, so can customise and edit a photo before it is upload. 

#2InstaWithMassiveLove isn't as polished as some of the other third party apps available for Instagram, but it is notable for being the first that can be downloaded and used for free without any upload restrictions.

The app's about screen notes that "we do not use any API provided by Instagram to prevent possible blockage", so the assumption is the app is using a method it feels is not in violation of Instagram terms of service. As we have previouly noted Instagram is keen to protect its service experience and generally frowns on third party apps that attempt to emulate the Instagram experience.

#2InstaWithMassiveLove, API usage aside, is no different to any of the other third party Instgram apps in this respect, and it remains to be seen whether Instagram will take any action against the range of app thats have been poppping up on Windows Phone in the last few weeks.

Incidentally, despite the simlarity of the name with Nokia's promotional #2InstaWithLove app, #2InstaWithMassiveLove is most assuredly not an official Nokia app, rather it has been created by third party SmokedByWindows8.
