The impression it gives me is "Alright they want one? There, take this and shut up! Leave us alone now!"
Yea I agree

That's been alot of developers attitude towards this platform, and it grows tiresome.The impression it gives me is "Alright they want one? There, take this and shut up! Leave us alone now!"
I actually had a few people who had Windows Phones and have since broke them and are using old iPhone until they have money to but a new one. They all say the biggest thing they miss about Windows Phone are the apps and I was in shock. They each specifically mentioned Rudy's apps being far better than the officials. Just thought that was cool to hear!
Well as such it is. But it's a little pathetic for Instagram that an unofficial app is better (and we're talking MILES better) that the official app. And, without blaming Rudy at all, I do wonder how his apps influence the decision making, if they do at all. Does Instagram think "Oh well they have a working app, they're using our services, so why spend money on developing one ourselves?"

But Rudy's app has been out long before Instagram. So why do build their own app at all if they are truly on that mindset?
I mainly use the official IG app. It has the basic features and gets the job done. It had instant notifications, allows for uploading photos from phone, and I can like and comment.
But I do use 6tag often too. It allows me to upload photos from OneDrive. But what makes it better than anything else is the "Like or Not" feature. I love that.
Yeah same here. I'm not an Instagram power user. The only thing that annoys me with the official app is that Twitter can't be added anymore to share on Twitter. So I use 6tag when I want to publish a picture on Twitter.
They do have a twitter however. Blow up their timeline and mentions there.If you guys really wants to help...

The Instagram team has no contact form, much less email.
- RT and like tweets.
- Make tweets in a natural way and not robotic. Comment on the subject.
- It takes an official app, do not tell me that about 6tag.
- Missing functions are numerous, so not worth being mentioned.
I think the union will do with the strength.
That is not really a fair judgement. Out of all the WP Instagram users, how many of them knows of this petition?
A lot. But everyone just says "Hey, but we have 6tag!"
That's true. But maybe Microsoft pushed for them to release an app
