I would move the saved posts to the profile page, so when you make a public/collab collection, people can see it on there, and is more easily accessible, so basically just like likes on tiktok
100% agree with everything you suggested I have one more thing I would add to your list, this thing is not a big deal, but quite annoying for me. in reels action buttons, they don't have a little bit of shadow, they're just white outline buttons, and when a video has a white background, I couldn't see the buttons and the like/share amounts
What now? Facebook? TH-cam? TikTok? I love this series! Keep making more and I’ll guzzle it down like a pig from a trough. I want all three mixed together like uneaten food in a garbage can. Gobble, gobble, gobble, yum, yum, yum! 🤤
i feel like there is so many more design issues with the app, and after the steam redesign (blew me away tbh) i was expecting more from you. Great thoughts anyways. just to add, in reel posts im often having problems seeing the content behind descriptions, promotions, music name, comments, vignette effect and sometimes people sharing stuff that has key frames at the bottom. pretty annoying
As someone who uses instagram the most out of any app currently, MAN I wish I had this! Your designs are so well thought out and researched, you can really tell that you've thought about every little detail and how it would affect the user experience! Super commendable, it really just leaves me wishing that this was a real instagram update video 😅
Some days I wish we could just boycott these apps and all move to ones that aren’t gathering our data, trying to sell us crap, and actually allow us to enjoy the experience rather than having frustrations.
They don't want you to know. The way the Following option is designed makes it look like a tab, while For you looks like the default. It irks me so much and instead of just using the option I prefer, it makes me close the app altogether.
I've always done these redesigns and reimaginings in my head and never knew of an outlet to at least put them on paper for lack of a better phrase. Thank you for such a eye opening experience, I'm definitely considering being a ui/ux designer now
I love how this is literally perfect in every way, it solves the issues, is logical, you’ve clearly thought everything through from at least most aspects, yet ofc they gonna do nothing
My biggest problem with Instagram is the hitboxes between a comment`s like button and the number of likes that comment has. Half the time when i go to like a comment, I am accidentally taken to a separate page (taking precious seconds to load) showing all the people who have liked the comment.
Oh my god. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love your content, but it's so infuriating to watch because your designs are so clever and clean and I just wish it was the original design 😭 I guess I'll have to go back my completely terrible default app
Naa I can't believe this, this is just absolutely brilliant. Can Instagram just please hire you as their design head 😍😭 As someone who probably has the most "love-hate" kind of relationship with the app, your work is incredible but also infuriating 😭 The current app design just goes through so many minor changes rapidly, and it's mostly terrible weird changes.... Whereas your suggestions just seem so straightforward, ideal and reasonable. Thanks to my YT feed for this amazing suggestion, even if I'm fed up with IG's current looks and vibes, as a content creator 🥲
I had to uninstall instagram because the muscle memory of clicking reels and wasting my time became too much. I wish reels could be entirely disabled so I can see what my friends are up to again... You did a great job with these changes by the way!
The legend Juxtopposed just gave some devs and designers a heart attack AGAIN. Bravo ! Another colossal project completed. Amazing stuff as always. Instagram's flaws make me want to scream into a void and blow fire from my mouth like a dragon
I truly appreciate everything you're saying. It's remarkable how a multi-million-dollar company struggles to figure these things out, yet your solutions are much more insightful and straightforward.
this is amazing, 99% of what you changed is the most optimal solution, you deserve a job at a big company, also your videos are great and satisfying keep up the good work
Actually I wasn’t expecting a designing video to be this entertaining! In fact, the problems suggested in this video are the reason why I’m using the app less than ever before, I don’t wanna be constantly bombarded with the trending stuff I see everyday; I wanna see the news, the ability to have control over my time, I wanna catch up with the new posts the people I care about share and then if I had time I’d like to visit the rending things. Sorta like YT, in the Recommended tab you’ll be able to catch up and other things are where they need to be in case you’re planning on watching more content.
The design flaws get unproportionally out of hand when you consider the extremely glitchy interface, bad server response time and random network bugs that happen all the time. Instagram is really messy and buggy and this redesign would be a massive improvement, and one step closer to the Instagram we loved in 2015.
yours has to be the best channel i've discovered on youtube since long ago. it's a fresh oasis inside this desert of meaningless content, specially in the context of every platform turning to fast-paced instant gratification. thank you for what you do ❤
First video I watched from this channel and as a developer, This is one of the best redesigns and breakdown of an app I have seen. I am looking forward to watch all of them. Great work!!
Phew, you've easily sprung into my top 5 creators I watch. Great research, brilliant design work and a heavy-handed sprinkling of cat memes - truly top-tier content. As a senior designer, you've scratched an itch I didn't know I had!
Watching this made me rethink about what were they even thinking when they made those UI/UX designs. Simple things such as relocating icons and stories that shows the amount of stories in it is just so amazing
9:05 Personal thought, I find it very obvious when I reply to others by swipe right, then I should swipe left to reply to myself. I think that swipe the message to the outside is instead very counter intuitive.
Ahhh you fixed it!! I remember when all these strange and useless features were implemented, with a lot of backlash. So frustrating that IG won’t listen to the community.
as a creator on instagram i've always been so annoyed with the interface cause it's SO confusing, this is so much simpler and i wish meta would actually listen or even hire you tbh, good job :)
08:31 My goodness, it's like the Instagram devs don't actually use their own product. If they did, they'd realize threaded conversations are much more readable. 💚
please no, this is how it works on reddit and its so messy!! it only works will a few comments, if there were many people replying or a whole conversation (yes these do happen quite often) it would become a real mess
5:25 lets not forget that one period of time where instagram tried to make ALL posts, regardless if it was just photos or reels, scroll just like reels would, and square/wide photos would have an ugly gradient behind them which is just a blurred out version of the actual post, and would actually make the reels tab redundant because the home page scrolls just like how reels would
There’s much more fundamental problems with having every single type of social media crammed into one app, but even this would make Instagram much less of a pain to use. Great video!
Oh, absolutely! Because who wouldn't want their social media experience to feel like navigating a minefield of features? It's like a fun little game of "Where's the Post Button Now?"
1:24 these inconsistencies are A/B testing to see what functionality users prefer. The issue is that it's apparently by account and not device, so the differences are much more apparent
I wish we could categorise our followings so we could view a carousel of stories of just our friends, or brands we like or just family. So essentially after categorising followings just select the group we’d like to view just by tapping the 4:42 Instagram content menu. So all your categorised groups would be chilling with the following and favourites buttons in that drop down menu.
You know... It's good to have people who REALLY use the app everyday to rethink it's design. I'm a huge fan of yours and your videos really inspire me to think like a user when doing UI and UX design. Keep up the good work ma'am ❤
I am a design student and I love your redesigns, they are the biggest reason i dont go and make up huge new ideas and try to make it better instead for my assignments😌
Cool. Your work is amazing and I love your videos. This really shows how obsessing over marketing goals eventually leads to bad UX. As someone who's trying to get into UI/UX, I find this kind of videos really helpful when it comes to understanding how UX works. The internet is flooded with Figma tutorials, but videos showcasing real scenarios like this one are pretty rare. You're a great teacher and I have to thank you!
1:27 This is called A/B tests. In their case, this is an A/B/C/D/E/F.../Y/Z- test🙃 This isn't something wrong or bad. This helps to understand how to improve the interface and what is more convenient for the user Also, About different icons on Android and iOS: this is done because users already have a certain interaction pattern (they more easily recognize the icons they are used to). But actually, It's not that important. Just traditions. I don't think that identical icons would slow down the interaction much
9:34 You've forgotten about Android with this choice. A swipe gesture that's too close to the sides of the screen will count as a back command, and take you back to the DMs page. I think Instagram's current DM reply gestures are the best given the platform navigation rules.
You do not have nearly as many of views as you should have for such a high quality video! Amazing work and I hope one day these big tech companies can scoop you up as a consultant and pay you huge amounts of money 💰
Great video! It's crazy how much stuff you notice without being aware of it. like, i didn't think i'd have anything bad to say about Instagram but the more you talked the more i found myself agreeing and thinking "ugh yeah that's so annoying" and "yeah they should change that". Sorry if this is obvious stuff, i'm new to the concepts of UI and UX
The rate of "OMFG, this is so true" per minute is peak on your redesign videos. Please don't stop doing this content! This is so useful, insightful and additive to watch!
0:04 that is the amount of accounts that exist, not active users. Businesses, people who stopped using it, and people with multiple accounts throw the number off
I've watched multiple videos from you about redesigning UI and what you do is great and what the companies attempt and fail horribly at is filling up our screens so there is no waste of space so we are hooked. Similar to how days ago TH-cam swapped the comment section with the suggested videos section and there was an online riot from the viewers over it.
Dang, that has to be the most optimized and intuitive layout for Instagram I could never imagine. Seriously, there are improvements in this video I never even would have thought of. I know it was a small part, but the TH-cam mobile app-style comments box under posts would be *way* more convenient than the mess they have right now.
Hey! I recently found your channel and I'm already loving how you bring humor and serious product design skills together. I was wondering if you could share (maybe in a video or even just here) how you learned to be more critical about design in products and what your process is for backing up your redesign decisions for these apps. Keep up the awesome content! I’ve already subscribed so I don’t miss anything-loving it!
Love your designed suggestions. it will really make the app the better. Once upon a time even I thought that thread could be a Instagram's new feature rather than a whole new app. Loved every suggestion.
Nice design, really great job! However, for big products like this, most design choices are usually based on user metrics. So if a feature seems a bit off but it's also in apps like Instagram, it's likely because users preferred it in the A/B tests. It might not be the best approach, but it's a common way to measure what works.
Works for who? And how come we all still hate it? I think it's more about intent. Meta is not going for good user experience to begin with. Your experience on the app is not a priority and this is obvious. They are going for max interaction and ways to keep you on the app for as long as possible and by any means possible to maximise ad revenue.
@@yega3k works for ig for sure, because the good user experience you mentioned, is subjective, and I'd argue that there's lack of a clear way to measure it? Time spent, engagement and ad revenue are what you can measure and somewhat reflects user experience. You can argue that those metrics can lead to short-sighted decision making, that's valid. But I'm just giving an plausible explanation as to why a design that seems off could end up in an app like ig.
Other than the messages and activity at the same place, I agree with all the changes that you have suggested. You are a great designer. So happy to see such type of UX studies and improvements. INSPIRING!!
I was so excited to see all those UI improvement, then I remembered that I’m watching a TH-cam video…I hope instagram hire u because this is just awesome and well done, I guarantee you they’ll watch this video and I hope it helps someone on meta to put all those things on instagram because yeah, we need all
you know what, you should be the head ui/ux designer for insta from now on. all ur design ideas are user centric as a ux designer should design. nice vid❤
3:38 nah that’s not a really good idea its annoying because i had to check the activity every time i want to chat that’s will makes me feel like i am obsessed about activity
It's cool to see that you took good resources from other apps, like a great mix... And it turned out really good, I hope Meta sees this video and listens to you
I'm in love with you whoever you are, this was in my mind for a long time I never support companies doings 'cause they make us struggle by putting something we look for in a crazy idiotic place and I always wanted to fix these but who am I, they wouldn't listen to me.
I‘m just a minute in, but what I’ve heard and seen so far definitely had to be rewarded with a thumbs up! Second thought: Oh, my god. I’m subscribing. Thank you, TH-cam, for putting this in my recommended.
I love your threads idea! I want that! I’ve been reluctant to go into threads because you have to rebuild your followingn and connections. Plus, when you get to threads, it’s just full of influencers and pages and less of the authentic content.
AMAZING! They really don't realize that their bad choices of design are leading people to uninstall the app, me and 2 of my friends stopped using it frequently
Alt title: I used Instagram all day for a month so you won't have to.
Soooo, what do you think about this? What do you agree/disagree with?
I would move the saved posts to the profile page, so when you make a public/collab collection, people can see it on there, and is more easily accessible, so basically just like likes on tiktok
100% agree with everything you suggested

everything is ok except the notifications redesign
Is the title missing "UI?" It doesn't really make sense atm
Amazing video btw!

can’t even describe how good it felt seeing it fixed, it scratched an itch in my brain
Honestly, can't believe some people use Instagram on a daily basis. The app is basically hot garbage!
It's like ASMR for designers 😄
How do I install this fixed design on my phone
can you fix my life too
no replies?

LMAOOO REALL
I don’t know how she’s gonna get rid of the thousands of kids in my basement but ok

The explore tab really needs that categories feature. Amazing design btw
Thanksss :)
Having less control over the content that appears to you is a feature.
Pretty sure they had that or something similar years ago already but ditched it for less user control
@@Levanooo right? they DID have it, they just removed it for no reason 💀

not kidding the video was so good, it got me thinking she is telling about instagram's new update
I think instagram took notes from you.. the recent updates are similar to this
4:08 your explore tab looks exactly like mine (full of adorable little cars and especially CrunchyLuna❤)
but, one difference, i have cute orange trucks too (🐯🐅)
you know what, you should be the head ui/ux designer for insta from now on. all ur design ideas are user centric as a ux designer should design. nice vid❤
The editing of this video is really good!!
3:38 nah that’s not a really good idea its annoying because i had to check the activity every time i want to chat that’s will makes me feel like i am obsessed about activity
This is perfect. Couldn't have put it out there any better and highlights every problem I have with the application.
The infinite cat

11:30 Wait insta actually applied this as of now! They listened to you haha :D
The worst is you can't post stories and stuff from pc much 😭
It's cool to see that you took good resources from other apps, like a great mix... And it turned out really good, I hope Meta sees this video and listens to you
instagram is unusable these days
You just got a new subscriber!
That 14 minutes felt like “14 seconds”
Awesome Presentation & Content ✨
Love ur vids ❤
Why is no one talking about the breaking bad reference in the introduction
I'm in love with you whoever you are, this was in my mind for a long time I never support companies doings 'cause they make us struggle by putting something we look for in a crazy idiotic place and I always wanted to fix these but who am I, they wouldn't listen to me.
8:21 similar to youtube?
From one product designer to another, you’re pretty damn amazing!! Look forward to watching more of your videos ❤
let’s ignore how every post or reel includes cats…
I‘m just a minute in, but what I’ve heard and seen so far definitely had to be rewarded with a thumbs up!
Second thought: Oh, my god. I’m subscribing. Thank you, TH-cam, for putting this in my recommended.
Can you redesign TikTok?
I love your threads idea! I want that! I’ve been reluctant to go into threads because you have to rebuild your followingn and connections. Plus, when you get to threads, it’s just full of influencers and pages and less of the authentic content.
People who are not on instagram like this comment, for science
AMAZING! They really don't realize that their bad choices of design are leading people to uninstall the app, me and 2 of my friends stopped using it frequently
no. Instagram cannot be fixed. I just deleted it because I'm sick of all the shit they cram in there.
You're the only designer I actually love watching.
