I made this little status bar app to have basic Instagram experience on my Mac. I know there was a couple of very similar apps presented before but I made it more robust and polished. vu supports multiple accounts and can upload photos directly from built-in camera. Yes, now you can take selfie on your Mac and post it to Instagram instantly. 👌🏻

Hey Boris, this looks great. can be very useful. Only thing is that i can't work out how to add another account? When I go to settings it doesn't seem to be displaying the option to add another account? Thanks Boris!

@karulin @amedeodamore came here to ask the same question, thanks! Will the functionality to change views on your own profile and on home search work (from grid to list) be added?

@karulin great! If I'm uploading high res images to Instagram, are you implementing Instagram's compress algo or a formula of your own?

@igorillatech when you upload an image it's processed on Instagram servers, same as on mobile web site. vu does not modify files being uploaded
