Ratings and reviews

Editing photos and videos has become the biggest, most frustrating hassle. I'll spend 15-20 minutes tweaking a photo, cropping and positioning it, only for it to revert back to its original appearance once I try to save my changes. Either that or it corrupts the file or turns the photo sideways. Or it shifts the photo to one side, leaving a black or white blank space on the other side. Never mind the amount of ads and the push for reels. Insta's 🚮 any more.

My app won't open 😭 I have done all of the trouble shooting. I've uninstalled it, restarted my phone, reinstalled it, deleted stuff off my phone storage. Nothing is working. The icon screen is as far as it goes. 😭 I'm trying to get a business going and this happens. So frustrating! Instagram is usually great but this is not good. I haven't been able to post a reel for 4 days now! Arg!

Instagram does not care about the user, only marketing. It no longer feels personalized or that its adapting to my use. I want to share a video to my account, I do not want it to be a reel. The reel editing is terrible. Stories work half the time. The app freezes constantly, I have a brand new phone. It's just frustrating to be rerouted to reels when I want to post to my story or my feed. I can't trim a video for a story post either. Focus on photo and video sharing. Not shopping.
