Still Not Over The Old Instagram Layout? You Can Get it Back!

If you still want to reminisce over the old Instagram layout, download the OG app

As the technology runs fast, you will have to pace up more quickly to catch up with it. But not everybody will agree with this. Some of us love to hang on to the older retro versions of our favorite apps.  Two app developers, Ansh Nanda and Hardik Patil also felt that way (and obviously, so did Kylie Jenner.) So, Nanda and Patil created the OG App, which can be found in the iOS and Android app stores. According to a report from Tech Crunch, OG doesn't offer a new platform entirely, but rather a way for users to customize the old Instagram layout.

The app automatically gets rid of ads and suggested posts on its filtered version of the Instagram feed. Additional OG features let users toggle Reels and the "Explore" page on or off. Users can also create different feeds for different needs, similar to Twitter's list concepts, wrote Tech Crunch. Finally, OG aims to give users more control over their own social media usage. There's an option to turn off feed updates for 24 hours, which could make it easier for people to step away from their phones.

"We saw our friends and family getting affected by social media, and even deleting apps because they didn't have enough options to modify what they see. We wanted to put users, and not the advertisers, first with this app. We started with Instagram because we thought the app has the most toxic relationship with its users," Nanda and Patil reportedly told Tech Crunch.
