Instagram and Picplz are photo filter and sharing apps that allow users to apply retro-style filters to photos and share them on social networks. While similar, Instagram is only available on Apple devices and has more photo editing tools and a larger user base, while Picplz is Android-only but has been improving its features. The author recommends Instagram for new users due to its larger social network, but prefers Picplz as an experienced user since they have used it longer.

2.  Picplz and instagram are both filter
applications for you phone to make your
pictures look retro and to share your pictures
on you pick of social network websites
 These two applications are also used as a social
network

3. Instagram is used by celebrities and civillians alike,
not only as a filter application but as a social
network with other people who have an account so
you can share pictures and comment on ones you
like

4. The same thing goes for Pic plz , you can
choose from a wide range of filters and
upload them to a profile for others to see and
comment on

7.  These two applications are more or less the
same but they have very subtle diffrences
 For instance , instagram is only avalable to
people who use apple devices like ipads and
iphones and such
 Where as picplz is only avaleable to people
who own android devices

8.  Pic plz also gives you less control of how your
pictures look, like less filters and other options
like focusing and saturation of color
 Where as instagram lets you control exactly
how you want your picture to look , its like
having paint for an iphone. You can choose
where you want to be color and where you
want black and white, where you want the
picture to be focused and many other cool add-
on’s

9.  Pic plz has recently made some adjustments to
the app and they have added more of those
features so it is slowly becoming more like
instagram

10.  You also cannot access instagram , meaning
you cant look at any profiles or pictures on
instagram unless you have an instagram
yourself.
 Big downfall!

11.  In my personal opinion , I would rather use
picplz only because I have been using picplz
longer then instagram but if you are a new
comer to this type of tool I would use
instagram only because its social network is far
bigger then picplz because more people have
apple divices then android and also because
instagram gives you way more room to kind of
fool around on your picture
