This just makes me even more mad that they have yet to make an Android app!!!
These were made by independent developers –
but I agree with you, thats a huge market they are missing out on!
How can I add an Instagram feed to a regular html page? I want to add my latest instagram to my website.
I also want to know how to do that
I’ve replied to this question above. Good luck.
A bit fiddly but possible as you can see on my personal website – a regular HTML site powered by jQuery. Check the source code to see how I did it. http://www.uemitoezcan.com. Good luck.
Great finds Oli!
