The Instagram company is testing a major change in the design of the application dedicated to iPhones and iPod Touches, the Americans activating the new interface being already activated for certain users of the network, the images from this article being published on various social networks.
The Instagram application has basically had the same design for several years, and a major change is necessary to give users the feeling that they are using something new, and the test done now with some users is to determine if the new design should be officially launched or not.
The new interface of the Instagram application is monochromatic and much simpler than the existing one, the functions of the application still remaining unchanged despite the fact that the visual change is a major one, as you can see from the images.
The Instagram company confirmed the testing of the new design dedicated to users, but states that a very small number of people can enjoy it for now, and that it will not go beyond a simple test, at least in the near future.
We often test new experiences with a small percentage of the global community. This is a design test only.
Instagram needed a visual change for the application used by hundreds of millions of users on the planet, and it seems that it is ready to be done, but it remains to be seen how long it will take until users can benefit from it.
