Did You See The New Instagram Browser UI? 😦

This afternoon I was doing my regular content strategy while browsing Instagram on my web browser. I wanted to refer some hashtags in one of my old posts, so went back and clicked on it as usual to check the caption.

For a second, the design felt good even though every element was in place. But being a designer myself, I quickly realized Instagram had updated their interface on browsers!

Now it's more curvy (as opposed to old boxy design) and the content column on right side looks a lot neater than before. I can't imagine how many times I had this questions as to why Instagram has kept the design so sharp.

Even the most subtle and smallest changes can make the user experience a lot better! It depends a lot on identifying where these changes are truly required and making them happen.

What do you think of this new design change to the browser interface of Instagram? Share your thoughts in the comments below! 👇
