Gonna post something actually USEFUL on this thread.

Don't bother requesting Instagram make it for us, they wont, end of. Its a nice idea, but it has and always will end up the same dead end and wasted efforts.

Instead what you should focus on, is asking somebody to build an application using QML that talks to the Instagram API found here:

http://instagr.am/developer/

This is the ONLY way Instagram will get on our phones, instead of making pointless petitions. Learn some QML and program it to follow the API I linked, or wait for somebody who knows what they are doing, to make a basic app for you, that can be updated and worked on until its a beautiful fully featured thing

PS. My point with this post is to APPROACH SOME DEVS FROM THIS COMMUNITY! MAG comes to mind! He wrote Sociality using the Facebook API, I am sure if you ask nicely enough he might consider starting off this app, or at least help us out with some more detailed info on how to create such an app.

You can replace Instagram in your sentence with basically any other application that has not made its way to Harmattan and Nokia is unwilling to pay for it to be ported and users remain in discussion if they want/do not want a feature/app. The problem isn't anything more than lack of support and a diverse yet small group of people that cannot agree to anything but a very limited set of things that seem so important to just... them.

Don't want Instragram, but want other stuff that seemingly is so esoteric I can't list it out because it didn't make any sense to me.

The problems with documented and undocumented API's is that they (the API holders) can modify on a whim to lock out whomever they wish.

Only look to Pandora for that. Or in this case, Instagram. Both have locked out unofficial apps in the past. They will continue to do so.

API's exist, but you're at the mercy of them granting you access. That's not always a given.

Allow access the same as the facebook API, obviously as pointed out just now, if the API holder wishes, they can change it to block third party apps.


I said it was our only chance. Didn't say it was gonna work fully or be the best in the world.

Ohh, well skimming seems to not help with API's these days :P

Why did they make an API just for browsing :/

It also has filters to enhance pics. Used it on my 4S only for the filters didn't care about the social side of the app.

I'm talking about the API, not the app, so no, IT doesn't
