Well, this only works when browsing other people's photos and when clicking on hashtags AFAICT. When searching for hashtags, it would be good if one could easily reach that as well, maybe by presenting the top 5 search results as links above the stream.

It would be nice if the "Popular" stream could also be switched to feed view.

My main gripe is that it would be nice to have a view of a photo, with likes, hashtags and comments below, and being able to swipe to the next in the particular stream. Right now, you still have to click on the comments for each photo and the "back" button again.

In any case, I don't want to sound too negative... The additions in 0.6.1 are great and I think instago is a fantastic and extremely well done app!
