In other news: Thanks for the get-well-wishes. I'm semi better and might find some time to work on the app later this week. Please don't hold your breath for a weekend release, though.

Generally you would want to use this as a way to swipe to the previous / next item in a list after you chose an image from the gallery view. This in itself makes sense and it a valid request.

The way the official app handles this is to offer a toggle between gallery and feed view for all logical cluters of images. So instead of swiping you would just scroll to get to the next. As the gallery view is essentially the detail view anyway it makes no difference and acts as a vertical swipe.

Summary: Good point, I'll add the gallery / feed view toggle

What do you all think?
I think that this is a great idea.

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!

Hi all,

here is the next developer version: 0.6.1 (developer build).

Direct download link is here.

Here is the changelog from developer version 0.6.0:

* Added intro page if users are not logged in
* Added gallery / feed view switch for user images
* Added gallery / feed view switch for hashtag search results
* Added links for hashtags in image caption
* Added links for user names in image caption
* Added links for hashtags in comments
* Added links for user names in comments
* Added WazappPureRegular font by @knobtviker for limited Emoji support

About this version:

I finally added links for hashtags and users (only visible if you are logged in). Also the discussed gallery / feed view switcher is available now, although I preferred a button in the title bar for this instead of the Instagram style buttons in the actual gallery component.

The Emoji support is just a fake. All I do is use a font that contains the special characters for Emojis so nothing is shown instead of squares (or some emoticon). Anyway, it's just a workaround until I have time to implement a working solution (thanks @knobtviker for the font).

As ususal the version is tested on my N9 and runs pretty well. Please report all bugs or quirks you may find here or on the project page.

I'm a bit out of ideas what to do as the next bigger step for Instago. Of course there are still some little things to clean up, but that's not going to keep me for long.

So I guess I could do two things:

* Wait for an Instagram response regarding whitelisting (propably won't happen) and use the time to port Instago to Belle (likely as I still have an N8) or Fremantle (less likely as I don't have an N900).

* Go ahead and implement features using the closed down endpoints the official app uses (possible but may get the app and me banned from Instagram).

Thoughts?

Was just wondering if any app has been banned for that in the past?
