    The app works fine now with Talkback, which is great. It's a really good social networking app, better than others I've used. Muting places like CNN and Fox has helped improve my experience. The community here is more relaxed compared to other places. The interface works well too. I suggest giving it a try.

    8 months later, the app has new features like the ability to see your "following" feed by tapping the icon. Now you can also switch between different accounts. However, I still encounter the problem of videos playing without sound at times. Like others have said, having a messaging system separate from Instagram would improve the app even more. It's shaping up as a good substitute for X (previously Twitter), but a few issues still need fixing. I've given it one more star in my updated review.
