Instafeed ‑ Instagram Feed

Great application !! It has a free plan that is very good. It enables us to show more content on our home page. :) I recommend !

Piggybacking on the other review someone posted from Feb 19th, 2020. Who said "Good because it's free and it works. My only gripe is that it is not mobile responsive. If it was, this would be 5 stars." However, I'm rating it one star below that, simply because of the developer's pathetic response to that review.

I actually happen to be a front-end web developer who writes HTML/CSS and has created feeds like this from scratch. I would absolutely NOT call this either "responsive" or "adaptive" (it's literally neither). All it does is scale down proportionately so that the same number of images appear on mobile as on desktop, which makes them tiny if you have any more than 2 images showing in the row.

Do you remember how websites looked on phones before people started developing for mobile? You'd see the full desktop site, but you'd be zoomed way out so it fits on your tiny phone screen without having to scroll sideways. Nothing would be readable, everything was tiny. You had to pinch-to-zoom to interact with anything, see images, etc. This is exactly the same way this instagram feed functions. Setting max-width: 100%; in your CSS and height: auto; on your images is about the lamest excuse I've ever seen for "responsive".

So no, it's absolutely not responsive. Does it work on mobile? Yes. It acts exactly like an old non-responsive website does. However, "does it work?" is a pretty low bar when non-responsive sites also technically meet that requirement. A better question would be "how is the user experience on mobile?" and the answer to that question would be "pretty garbage because you can't see anything". In my opinion, that doesn't count as "responsive" at all.

Shopify's built in feature worked fine. Their developers just didn't want to be bothered to update their tool to use Instagram's new Graph API (which honestly would have taken one of their developers an afternoon) so instead they're passing the buck to third party developers. Now, if you want actual responsive functionality with your Instagram feed, you need to shell out more cash. It's lazy on Shopify's part, and seemingly the third party options are also pretty garbage unless you pay money.

But hey, it's free I guess.

I used this app to replace the Instagram feed on my Shopify website. It was really easy to set up. So far I am happy with it. Thanks.
I enjoyed the ease of use. I am not all that tech savvy...good for self taught people.

Simple and works seamless. It's all we need to bring our instagram feed to our webstore. We recomend this app.

Provide some detail about what you did or did not enjoy about using this app. Your comments can hhhh

It helps me a lot on my website layout arrangement, no annoying message that ask user to pay. Excellent. Very user-friendly. But can anyone make the profile picture shown please on free version ;'( Glad it is available for displaying Instagram reel and IGTV on upgraded version, will try it out if we have reels afterwards.

great app worked smoothly. i recommend it is easy and friendly to use for any beginner. works well for the website

Best App for Instagram feed. Latest shoppable feature even in free plan. That's really great for small business owners. Highly recommended.

This app is great to show Instagram feed on the homepage.

I've been procrastinating on installing something like this, assuming it would be complicated. But I literally just installed it on my website in 30 seconds! So easy, and a great way to increase my Instagram following :)
