Bolt by Instagram - what is it?
The app "Bolt by Instagram" wants to compete with Snapchat. In this practical tip, we explain what is behind the application and how exactly the app works.
Instagram app "Bolt": This is how the Snapchat competitor works
- Bolt is a pure Instagram photo and video messenger. This means that you can only send snapshots and videos with it.
- As with Snachpchat, you can also add text here (see picture). However, there are no filters like Instagram or editing functions like Snapchat.
- With "Bolt" you can easily use several frames per second. Because there can be a bad selfie among the snapshots, a callback function has been integrated into the app, which you can activate by shaking your smartphone.
- The upcoming Snapchat competition Bolt is currently only available in some countries, such as Australia. The start in Germany is planned for 2014.
