The photo-sharing as well as later on video-sharing, social media firm's growth began when the owners decided to focus their multi-featured HTML5 check-in project, Burbn, on mobile digital photography.

The name Instagram is derived from the words "instantaneous camera" and "telegram". Their iOS app was formally launched through Apple's Application Store on October Sixth, 2010 and also later on to Android on April 3rd, 2012 with Google Play (a.k.a. Android Market).

Today it boasts over 800 million signed up users globally and also more than 450 million individuals make use of the system daily.

Many professionals, myself included, think that it could get to a billion users later this year. That's more than double the month-to-month energetic customers of Twitter and over three times as lots of customers on Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp.

More than 80% of its users are located beyond the United States.

Facebook revealed their purchase of Instagram on April 9th, 2012 for $1 billion in cash as well as stock, together with 13 workers.
