Video On Instagram

Instagram, the immensely popular photo-sharing app that was acquired by Facebook in a $1 billion deal last year, is not just for photos anymore.

Instagram has recently announced Instagram Video, another way to share your stories. When you go to take a photo on Instagram, you’ll now see a movie camera icon. Tap it to enter video mode, where you can take up to fifteen seconds of video through the Instagram camera.

You’ll also discover Instagram has added thirteen filters built specifically for video too. When you post a video, you can also pick your favorite scene from what you’ve recorded as your cover image / thumbnail so your Instagram videos are beautiful even when they’re not playing.
