This petition is set in place to accrue signatures from as many Android users as possible to generate wider awareness of the issue as well as call the developers of the Android Instagram application to revamp the current app or develop an HD variant for high-end devices. It's always frustrating to have a device with internals and/or a camera that can run circles around an iOS device but have our image quality turned to junk upon uploading to Instagram.

My own photos look like a pixelated mess compared to what my friends post from their iPhones. We are almost at one thousand signatures so please send this link to anyone else tired of their high-end hardware being held back by this app.

I am still seeing so many of you share photos that look crisp on your screen only to be ruined by the upload process. It feels like we are carrying around these powerful cameras just to have the software strip away every detail we worked to capture. I am pushing to get this in front of the people at Instagram who actually decide how these files are handled.

I am tired of seeing my photos look like trash while my friends on iPhones get crisp resolution every time. We are getting very near the first hundred signatures so please pull together and send this link to your friends who use high-end Android phones.

I just switched from an Iphone 5s to a Samsung S6, and despite the fact that the S6 has a much better camera, on Instragram they're reduced to looking like absolute rubbish!
i agree with this. so many of my pictures have been ruined when trying to share via IG. If VSCO cam was a better social media network, i'd completely forget IG. This is the step in the right direction towards fixing one of my biggest gripes.
To have this happen would be amazing, as just by the nature of Android being an OS (not a manufacturer), 10+ MegaPixel Cameras are more common. Lets see the detail! :)
Professional college sports photographer that uses Android. Would like to see my shared images compression free. HD variant or add-on would be wonderfully appreciated.
If you want to have an Instagram that's focused on typography and you have an Android device, you might as well forget it. The photo processing on the Android app is so terrible that it makes typefaces look jagged and misaligned, completely negating the beauty that is trying to be shared.
J'espère que ça aboutira à quelque chose possédant un ultra haute gamme(S21 Ultra de Samsung)
I hate this lack of optimization

This hinders Android users from showing their pictures to their full potential, I have to ask my friends who have an iPhone to log into my instagram account and upload my pictures that I took with a Canon T3i using their phone just to show the quality of the picture, it's ridiculous.
