Although Instagram is now officially available in the Windows Phone store, there are many third party alternatives for Instagram for the platform which were released prior to the release of official app. One of the popular ones is Instance for Windows Phone 8, which was one of the early apps to bring Instagram to WP8. The developer has updated the app and it is bumped into version 2 with new UI and features.

Instance v2.0 receives a much needed UI refresh as well as new features added in. The new features include support for other services like Flickr, Tumblr, Foursquare, etc.

Instance now has the option to save images which you capture using the app to the camera roll. You can choose to save the raw photo and also the edited photo to the camera roll. You can configure other services from the settings. It also comes with two themes to choose from.

Features of version 2:

Geotagging

Flickr Support

Tumblr Support

Foursquare Support

Pinterest Support

Delete Comments

Theme options

Editing profile support

Improved privacy features

Overall, the UI has been improved vastly and Instance looks great in version 2.0. You can download it free from the Windows Phone store.
