Instagram will be available for the new Windows Phone devices in "the coming weeks", as announced by Nokia for the presentation of its new Lumia smartphone in Abu Dhabi.
After insisting for a while, eventually the Finnish company has managed to have the popular photo app and complete the application ecosystem Microsoft operating system.
The news comes with the announcement of the new features of Lumia 1520 inviting the user to shoot pictures nonstop. It has a 6 inch screen and 1080 pixels, and 20-megapixel camera PureView.
The Instagram CEO, Kevin Systrom, confirmed the news saying, "We are excited to see, in the coming weeks, how Windows Phone community uses Instagram to capture and share good times," according to The Verge. "Our ultimate goal is to make Instagram is available for those who want to use it," continued Systrom.
However, if you look at his record, an application has been relatively slow to adapt to new platforms or operating systems. Made exclusively with iOS launch in 2006 and it was not until April of 2012 when Android users began to enjoy it.
Meanwhile, alternative applications were appearing with the intention of filling the gap left Instagram on Microsoft's operating system, as Instance , Hipstamatic Oggl or 6tag (formerly known as 6tagram), to name a few. Meanwhile, Facebook (owner of Instagram since April 2012) applied various measures to curb the proliferation of clones blocking their access to the original app or prohibiting the use of the prefix "urges" and the suffix "gram".
With 150 million users, Instagram is one of those applications that enrich the ecosystem of apps on any platform. Its usefulness could be compared to that of Twitter, Facebook, Evernote or Dropbox, and more. Today's news should have rejoiced to Windows Phone users.
