Instagram, the popular photo-sharing app for iOS has got a new look with its latest version. The header and the menu buttons have been revamped with Instagram 2.1, and now, when you tap on an Instagram notification in the iOS Notification Center, you’re brought directly to the relevant photo, comment or user profile page in the app.

Instagram has also added the Lux feature, which when turned on makes photos more vibrant and adds more light and details to the pictures. There is also a new filter called Sierra  you may want to try.
