If you’ve ever used Instagram on a desktop computer, you know that it resembles a poorly designed version of the app’s mobile website. The business is now launching a new design that makes use of enormous screens. Adam Mosseri, the CEO of Instagram, announced this in a post on Tuesday along with a function that lets business accounts schedule their postings.
“We know a lot of people use the web to multitask and we wanted to make sure Instagram was an as great experience as possible online,” he said. He added this new design is cleaner, faster, and easier to use.
Menus and icons for the home screen, search, messages, and alerts are now located in a side window in the New Instagram update.
Additionally, the explore/search page displays a full grid that fills the whole monitor. Depending on what screen you are viewing, the new sidebar extends and contracts.
When you opened a profile in an earlier version of the online interface, options like Posts, Guides, Reels, and Tags were housed on top of the grid. So, from wherever you were, you had to scroll to the top if you wanted to go to another tab. By positioning these alternatives to the side, the new design addresses this issue.
It will be simpler to browse Instagram on wide monitors and switch between multiple tabs thanks to this revamp, which is gradually being rolled out to users. Unfortunately, there won’t be an Instagram app on the iPad any time soon. Mosseri stated earlier this year that the iPad app is “not significant enough” to warrant priority consideration for creation.
