Our Favorite Companion Apps For Instagram on Android
The popular photo editing-sharing app, Instagram, made its way to Android smartphones last April. Though it did not have support for Android tablets, it was quickly downloaded by fAndroids, which irked a lot of iOS users. They were enraged that the iOS-exclusive app was being infiltrated by Android users and deemed that the newbies were polluting their photography haven.
Now that fAndroids’ presence on Instagram isn’t such a big deal, let’s look at some of the tools being utilized by Android users in making their mark permanent in the Instagram world.

This app is great for stalkers – it lets you see on the map where the photos on Instagram are taken. But if you’re not a stalker, as you shouldn’t be, this app is great for finding hidden treasures like paradise getaways for you and your honey, or just a peaceful sanctuary for you to clear your head.
These two apps let you put cool and funky frames on your Instagram photos. InstaPicFrame allows you to share on Instagram and other social networks while Instaframe just lets you share on Instagram. InstaPicFrame allows you to put multiple photos in a single frame, like a collage. though Instaframe doesn’t have that feature, it allows you to doodle on your photos.
