Users of larger phones will notice that buttons are rearranged for ease of use, while users of smaller devices will benefit from an efficient use of  screen space. The latest Instagram for Android update supports devices of all types, with its quicker and sleeker user interface.

Users of Instagram can download the latest Android client from Google Play.
