Android users have never been able to use Instagram, as it is an iOS exclusive. Well, was an iOS exclusive. 

At South by Southwest, a geek conference in Austin, Texas, Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom announced that Instagram would be coming to Android pretty soon. He says that currently, the Android Version is in a private beta testing stage, and will be "coming soon".

"In some ways, it's better than our iOS app. It's crazy", said Systrom. In addition, he announced that the iOS version of the app, which was featured as Apple's iPhone App of the Year in 2011, had reached over 27 million downloads.

Although we still don't know exactly when Android users will gain access to this great service, as Instagram co-founder says, it's coming soon. So Androiders, hold on, soon you too will be able to take vintage square images.
