Well BlackBerry fans, today is the day. Well maybe not the day but it's close enough. BlackGram, the first fully-functional Instagram client for BlackBerry 10, is now available. With BlackGram you can FINALLY get a native Instagram experience on BlackBerry 10.
** Update from Kevin: Just spoke to the developer of BlackGram. They have temporarily hidden the app within BlackBerry World, so they can scale-up their servers and fine-tune login requests. As you can imagine, BlackGram is getting a TON of demand. Keep it locked to CrackBerry and we'll let you know as soon as it's going live again. **
The app itself looks much like Instagram on other platforms but has been built from the ground up specifically for BlackBerry 10. We've been playing around with it a bit and although it does differ slightly from standard Instagram experience, it's pretty amazing.
The app itself features everything you'd expect including account creation, profile editing, full browsing, actual Instagram filters and much more. It looks like Instagram, it feels like Instagram and it's pretty damn close to Instagram.
Features include:
- Account creation
- Profile picture change
- Full browsing: followers, following, liked.
- Search users and tags
- Like, unlike, comment, follow and unfollow
- Select a picture from your albums or take a photo with the camera
- Edit the image with the integrated editor and native filters
- Original Instagram filters (server-side)
One of the small things to note is that a lot of the work of the app takes place on the server side, meaning that A) it's a paid app to cover costs and B) Your photos will take a bit to actually show on your feed since they need to be encoded on the server beforehand. This prevents Instagram from flagging the photos as coming from an unofficial app.
That being said - Instagram is here. BlackGram is awesome. Go buy it.

Just read this review and spend my cash on the app only to know that it's no longer supported! And now I can't login. This is bad experience as this is the first app I purchased!

Do NOT get it for the passport. It only uses half of the screen and is unstable.

not sure what is up with this app , purchased it for a mere 2 bucks downloaded and tried to sync it to instagram, no dice, keep getting any error message any suggestions ?
Give it up and just go with Instagram sideload.

I'll stick to iGrann. Don't see why I should be paying for an App that's free on other Platforms
Posted via CB10
I like the ability to regrann from Igrann if blackgram had this option it would be perfect.

Can it upload Videos to Instagram?
Can it upload Videos to Instagram???
But there is one very important option missing, there is no possibility to remove a picture on the black gram and as a computer version has no option for it either, you are stuck with pictures you do not want to have (no matter what reason, they are old, you posted things twice by mistake etc etc)
Or is there an option and I simply didn't work that out? In this case please enlighten me!
Seriously! How disgusting that Instagram cannot be bothered to service millions if BlackBerry users. Why would they spend so much time trying to thwart 3rd party apps and no effort to create an app for the BB10?
This app seemed to be working at first until I tried to upload my first picture. The picture was not being uploaded and the app crashed. After that I was not able to use the app. I tried to use my side loaded Instagram but could not login. I had to reset my password to get the side loaded Instagram to work again. I tried my new password on BlackGram but it still doesn't work. Waste of 3 bucks. Oh well. Hopefully there will be a fix out soon.
Same issue here, password change and everything for the sideloaded app... then the BlackGram app worked ok at first, but now I can't log in. Not cool.
3 dollars for an app which is FREE on Android and iPhone.
To the dev - hahahahahhahahahahaha
also, are you serious?
And you should also notice you have 3 stars...
This is complete bull &#!+
To everyone else, use the website to get your fix. I regret paying. 99 cents for instago in BlackBerry World, I have a strong suspicion I would regret this even more.

You can't get this app on other platforms. Surely you know what a third party client is?

I bought blackgram just to try it. It's OK but not the same as the side load one. Blackgram turn-off my phone when I took picture and try to send it to instagram. Wierd but it does happens! Maybe i'll wait for the updates! I'm using Q10 (10.2)

Proudly Z10 owner...
I just spent 2.99 on this app and I will download iGrann too once it's available, even if it will cost me another 2.99. Then I will decide which one is best and maybe donate another 2.99 to the one I like the best.
It works well enough, I like it. Its a good start.
I personally like the twitter client "blaq" better than the official twitter app. in this case if people show support, the dev will work harder to bring new features and make the app better. Even if an official instagram app arrives, the client instagram app "blackgram" have the possibilities to add more features and to make the 2.99 worth it and even be better than the official app. it happened to me with blaq and i dont see why it won't be the case for blackgram.
The app works really well
Posted via CB10
Its up and running; I just purchased it and uploaded my firsy pic...nice work and please quit bitching about the $3 lol cheapskates!!! hahahahaaha
Posted via CB10
Seems to work pretty good. I noticed one problem though. When you comment on a post or view likes for example and then click back, it sends you all the way back to the top of the posts rather than the post you were originally viewing. This is a bit annoying as you have to keep scrolling back down to the post you were looking at.

This app is up and running again. You can purchase it in BB World now! Great app compared to iGrann. A lot more developed and will only get better with future updates. Worth the $3 in my opinion. Just like Blaq you pay for what you get!
Lol at instagram blocking this! Let this be a lesson, we have a working version. Wait.
Posted via CB10
The problem is yours, I'm using BlackGram with no issue at all (I posted more than 20 pics, followed 5 new users and commented a lot ;)
I'll pay couple of quid for a decent app any day.

I see it available in my app store to download now.
But those reviews aren't promising. And the price is a bit much I think

Still not working
Im not buying it....
Posted via CB10
Omg, why everybody wants this Inst....? And why they look more for apps then a very good Os and phone? I'm want to get the z30 because it's the best phone available. 80% of my time I use my actual z10 for my job and the other 20% for my free time. I bought tons of games but I haven't time to do this. If I have free time I spent it to go out to play soccer with my son or have a walk at the beach. It is much more worth then looking all the day on a screen. After that I meet with real friends and tell them what a wonderful day and have a drink or what else. My phone have to simplify my work, so I'm able to concentrate on real important things. This is what BlackBerry is for. (sorry for my english, I'm german)
Posted via CB10
You are in a shrinking minority my friend...your English good enough
I don't have the time to play football but i don't complain about other people doing it. I don't see your problem. It's a big assumption to make that because someone wants the ability to use a photo sharing app they must therefore spend all their free time staring at a phone screen. There are loads of things other people will do that you won't have time to do, or that you simply don't want to do, but complaining about it or being confused by it says more about your life than it does about their tastes, work ethic or social lives.

Purchased it last night couldn't log in. Plenty of updates on the Web why left it overnight and it's working fine this morning I guess once it's calmed down it will be back in app world again. If you don't want to pay $3 then don't, no one is forcing it on you. If I wanted a coffee I wouldn't go in to a shop ask for a coffee then say but I dont want to pay and expect to walk out with a coffee. I'll download IGrann too and see which I like best. At least now I don't have to take a pic on my BlackBerry, email it to myself, open the email on my iPod touch when I'm near wifi to upload a picture to instagram. I'm happy
Posted via CB10
Frankly I don't care if it's working or not now. Regardless off the price, when I pay for something I don't expect it to be faulty. I have since deleted the app and BlackBerry have already approved my refund.

It started working for me suddenly! I logged in and even posted a pic on my Instagram. So, afterall, those 3 bucks wasn't spent for nothing. Thanks, dev!

I would'nt have minded spending the money if only this app was half decent.
Posted via CB10
I've had a chance to try out Blackgram and the iGrann beta side by side (I already use Instagram sideloaded and Instago.) So far I think that iGrann has a lot of potential and is a smoother working native app than Blackgram (even though it's beta.) iGrann has very smooth scrolling, whereas Blackgram feels jerky by comparison. I would have purchased Blackgram regardless to support the developer, but after finding you can't preview your images before submitting that really reduces the value of the app. You also can't use the sharpen or blur features that the native client has nor can you post video. So Blackgram doesn't offer more than sideloaded Instagram client + a client like Instago which lets you comment without keyboard issues. iGrann could be the best value if it's free, since it looks to be very smooth, lets you use the native camera filters or stored photos for upload, and can allow comments without keyboard issues. Basically iGrann is an Instago client that can post, but with an even better UI.
iGrann is smooth, but I think I will use BlackGram as it seems to be more secure with its server-side picture encoding. I don't want my IG account blacklisted ;)
I sent an email to the developer, next week he will add add video upload too !!!
If that's true, then yes BlackGram would have an advantage. Perhaps one solution might be to use the sideloaded Instagram, take your photo, edit and apply necessary filters, then cancel just before the upload on the comment screen - I believe the image is already saved to the filesystem by that time. Then you can just pick up either Blackgram or iGrann and then post the filtered / edited photo raw you just created moments before, and comment on it with no keyboard issues. A lot of work though ;)
Yes, I just confirmed that you can do this :) Create the photo in sideloaded Instagram, then at the comment page just switch over to Blackgram and then select your photo from the library / gallery and then comment as normal and then post. Problem solved :)
Too half-baked...
Ok complainers, its working now .. :)

Works Like charm
Ok so the app is finally working heres my review...
Not worth the $3 Dev's still have A LOT of work to do!!
You dont have a "news feed" to see what ppl ur following like, comment etc... when you post a photo its "queued" for aboutb2 min before being loaded to the server, when searching for users or anything in the explore tab it doesnt load as you type...you have to finish typing and click search forbit to actually search.....also when uploading a pic you cant even see the changes that the instagram filters have on ur pic, the filter gets added after u submit it to be published so you actually cant even see the changes before publishing which is WAAAAAAAACK!!! Overall, not worth the $3 as I said...may seem like very small useless functions but believe me it makes ALL the difference
Posted via CB10
I totally agree. When you search users or tags only the 20 most recent pics are available.
When uploading, photos are often wrongly orientated so you have to go into the native editor then crop into a square so that it is the correct way up.
I think the addition of the Instagram filters in the app is next to useless without the ability to preview; plus there are no frames, no blur... the things that give photos that Instagram look are not available. I'm peeved because after the 10.2 update the native BlackBerry photo editor is not as good. Thank god for Filter Box. I'm finding myself editing a photo in Filter Box then uploading to Instagram via Blackgram, which is fine but I'm not sure I'd have paid for that small ability. You can't even share your photos to Facebook or Twitter via the app.
I should have read the review properly rather than trust Adam's over enthusiastic endorsement. Without the ability to edit photos with Instagram filters in real time and without frame and blur options, I find that this app will be of little use to me.

Up and running now, looks really good. Already posted with it from my BlackBerry Q10!

Thank you for your valuable contribution to the discussion.
Posted via CB10
Okay I'm gonna chime in, some of us bought the app way before Crackberry ever posted it wasn't working. So those of us that saw the positive review 'pre update' bought it; myself included. The reason for the uproar is because it's a faulty app that we paid for; would you purchase a product prior to knowing if it works? Probably not. Some of us are upset at the principle not the fact. The sad part is there is no trial to see how the experience is before we buy, therefor we are purchasing on a trust basis. Some of us bought a broken app it doesn't matter if it's 3 dollars or 50 cents, as consumers we want to purchase things that work period.

Excuse my ignorance on the subject as I do not have any experience with Apples App store......but do their Apps ever launch and then shut down due to "high demand" or "server issues"? It seems like pretty basic strategy to test these things before launching an app. They should have known the demand was going to be high....why not just delay the release until you know its ready? Anyway.....sounds cool, excited to try it and I wont lose any sleep over waiting an extra day or two or paying $3.00.

I am not sure who you refer to when you say "they". This has nothing to do with BlackBerry World it was the independent developer that had the launch issue, nothing to do with the app store.
Posted via CB10
The developers.
Here's what I say to all you who complain one after the other about unable to log in. DONT you read the comments?
Wasted money? That's your fault! Want Instagram? Get over it. Either side load or grab an android or iOS unit.
Seriously the bulk of you whinging away after so any have log in issues. Nobody told you to purchase an app that's flawed.
Will be quite the fun, if Instagram decides that won't allow this app to be there.
Good luck. I'm all for supporting developers, but with and identical app to be released for free in a matter of days, why wouldn't you wait to see both in review.
I'll just sit back and watch the complains and admire the foolishness.
Only a fool thinks they know me.

Rant over.
I don't use Instagram other than to watch what my kids post (yes over protective dad) but I would have a couple of concerns with this app. If support dwindles off after the initial launch will the dev continue to maintain the server? Also the potential for support to be abandoned if FB releases an Instagram for BB10. Will the people continue to support the developer if this happens. I like some of the posts about Blaq, a quality superior app to the native client, if this app can get there than they will have a chance IMO.

What's most interesting is that it appears that a single Dev who isn't even part of Instagram was able to do the port to a native BlackBerry 10 app on their own much less porting the Android app which would have been even easier. The fact that Instagram still won't help when others offer to invest in it for them is a poor reflection on them imho.

Well I can finally get in and my first impressions are not great I'm afraid. It's fine if you just want to upload pics to Instagram and follow folk but as for the original Instagram filters it's all done offline! you have absolutely no idea what it'll look like until after its finished queueing and uploaded. There is no option to add the blur and lens flare type effects either. So basically you're paying £2 just for the ability to share and follow on Instagram. Umm....

People, Kevin has posted that the app is hidden in bw so don't bother downloading until he posts another update.

I don't understand people buy this app and then complain about it.
Instagram always block unofficial apps, so Crackberry shouldn't even tell people about this app exists. It's waste of money.
If you want Instagram, buy iPhone or Android. Make a choice. I also wish Instagram arrived to BlackBerry, but since they didn't, I have chosen to live without them, because BlackBerry is much more awesome than having iPhone and Android just because of fucking photo sharing app.

I'll buy it once there are more reviews out. Lol @ the people complaining about it being $2.99. You do realize people spent a lot of time creating this app right? They def deserve something for it and it's definitely not people complaining about $2.99. Go look in your car and in your couch cushins i'm sure you'll find at least that much and then you have no reason not to spend the money on it ;)
So many people were like wahhhh BlackBerry doesn't have Instagram now you finally do and you're crying over $2.99 hahaha. Come on people be greatful this even exists!
Posted via CB10
With all the pent up demand for an IG app, I'm surprised they're only charging $3. I hope people enjoy the app and that the devs well compensated for their work. Keep it movin' y'all!

That's because nobody tries the damn thing first writing an article

Hmm. All the reviews have been deleted
Posted via CB10
I was wondering where the reviews were. Not even BlackBerry deletes bad reviews. How crappy is that? Lol
Posted via CB10 on my BlackBerry Q10
So what happens to all the people who paid once the app gets banned?
Posted via CB10
It's a cilent app just like Blaq is a twitter client app.
Posted via CB10
It's so disappointing.. after I paid 3$ I can't log in. What a crap!
Calm down, it's a new app right? I'm sure they're still working on it.
Posted via CB10
Is it worth 2.99?
Posted via CB10
I can't log in :-(

"This app cannot be purchased"
Is anybody else getting this?
Posted via CB10
Cant login!
Loving my QTEN!
No thank you!!! Why should I pay for an app if it's free on other platforms. This is humiliation for blackberry users!
Posted via CB10
Lots of comments on how Instagram is free on all other platforms and why should blackberry users pay for it. Blackgram is not Instagram!!! I say again Blackgram is not Instagram!!! It's an Instagram client. Same as the Twitter client Blaq which you also have to pay.

Nobody likes it, everyone left it, they are all out without it, having fun~~the intention of charging free software may be bad...

Never used instagram before I Googled it to find out what all the fuss was about. So it's an app that let's you upload pictures to a social networking app...... wait isn't that Facebook? WTF is so special about instagram anyways?
Posted via CB10
It's what all the cool kids use.
Posted via CB10
It has built in photo editing software
Also more like Twitter in that you don't have a profile and people can follow you.
Basically it's a way to post photos without linking them to all your personal info. Therefore you can allow more followers that you would otherwise not let see your photos on Facebook
Instagram is for egotistical narcissists
Posted via CB10
Doesn't let me download?
Posted via CB10

Posted via CB10
Ahem... is this thing on?
Amidst all the, um, terse exchanges on this thread, I'd like to ask:
Who owns the uploaded photos? Do I retain my ownership? Thanks.
Posted via CB10 on my Z10
Impossible to download the app. What is going wrong ?
Posted via CB10
Still will go with the android port!!!
Posted via CB10
Waiting for app to allow purchasing !!!
Posted via CB10
Is the app fit for the q10? Because the sideloaded instagram is not
Posted via CB10
It's 3$ you cheap ass
Posted via CB10
I got it. Pure luck though. I happened to login and download before anyone had reviewed it. I almost thought it was a fake at first.
Not approved by the NSA. My personal Q10
Why would I pay for instagram LMAO
Posted via CB10
What The hell.... this app can't be purchased!!! what's going on?
Posted via CB10
Is this Igrann or??gram
Did not read the entire post so forgive me...
Posted via CB10
I gotta admit a few minutes for photos to appear on instagram is stopping me from trying this app..
Posted via Q10
Are you joking?
Posted via CB10
Nope are you?
Dayuum! Never seen this much comments on Crackberry...no doubt instagram is a solid app
Posted via CB10
On blackberry world, It
says this app cannot be download
Posted via CB10
Yes, that's correct if you look at the news post Kevin has updated it about 2 hours ago stating exactly that because the dev is working on the server due to demand...
Patience people we've been waiting almost a year for this we can wait another few hours
..

I wish less people would comment about the price. How is this on the Q10, compared to the sideloaded IG app. Anybody know? I'll probably wait a week and see what's more to come.
Posted via Q10
Cackberrys just going down hill. First you complain there's no instagram. So BlackBerry makes side loading a reality. Then people want native. So a developer makes an app. Then you guys complain 3 dollars is too much. Come on really?
Posted via CB10
My cous is enjoying his I suppose, dunno if he's intentionally getting me jealous... sad
Posted via CB10
Is really Blackgram, all well done. Cool.
What really irks me is that most everyone is focusing on creating apps for iphone and android devices and don't seem to be interested in producing compatible/working apps for BB10 platform. Though, you can access via browser, it's limiting so it's difficult to enjoy the full experience as if it were a native, functional app for BB10 or Windows.
Yes, side loading is a great option! It's free, for those that would prefer not to pay. But it's upsetting that as many of us, who have chosen a BlackBerry for a device, are left out of some of these enjoyable apps or sites.
Makes me feel like there is some kind of mutual understanding between the two giants to exclude BlackBerry from a competing market.
Sort of like when I first acquired my Q10 from T-Mobile USA. Went in several times, different stores to see and test the device. To my surprise, most of the time the displays were either dummy phones, non-operational, or on demo mode. In addition, no one rep was ever able to help me navigate nor understand the phones features. 3 out of 4 sales reps said not to buy the phone because they were getting many returned devices by unhappy customers. However, they were quick to try and sell me on a galaxy s4 or iphone because according to them, these were the everything phones that people like. Well, we're not all the same nor like the same. Personally, I'm very happy with my awesome device. Q10!!! Patiently awaiting Z30.
Posted via CB10
Rubbish it's not working.
Posted via CB10
It's working perfectly now on my Z10 :)
I actually paid for the app but can't even log in....since this morning it says "servers in maintenance will be back online shortly" and I don't have the patience to sideload...I actually tried and can't seem to be able to access my phone from the PlayBook app in chrome...wtf!!!
Posted via CB10
They will gripe about three. bucks but blow that on beer
Posted via CB10
Holly smokes all these negative comments. Don't be cheap or just get nexus 5. You do realize that the app is made by blackberry fanatics for blackberry fanatics. It is not fair for instagram to rake away this app from blackberry. I do not want shitty nexus 5. I rather keep my blackberry and pay $3. I value my privacy! Thank developers for this app
Posted via CB10
Telling me "this app cannot be purchase"... arghhhhh
Posted via CB10
No trial version. Huh
Posted via CB10
paid app seriously??
Gotta wait on it. It should have been free. But we will see if this will be worth paying for.
Posted via CB10
I'm going to wait it out a week or so. Let the reviews pile in, if it works fine with no issues I will definitely dish out the whole 3 dollars. I want notifications too, anyone know if it will have notifications on "likes" etc?
Posted via my Zed10
Tried to purchase but says it's not available..... ?????
Posted via CB10
IM NOT BUYING A DAMN APP WOW. Make it free for fuck sakes
Posted via CB10
I can't wait for the Instagram client you develop, it's going to be great, and free, right? When are you releasing it?
CAPS LOCK BECAUSE I'M ANGRY THAT SOMEONE MADE SOMETHING BUT I WANT IT FOR FREE!
Posted via CB10
Yes and make it now we are all waiting!
Posted via CB10
just can't wait to download your apps ... curious to see how good or bad, and its free right?
Reviews suck
