2 Tap the Search icon in the lower-right corner of the screen.
3 Tap the Search box, at the top of the screen, and start typing the word Instagram.After you type the first two or three letters, Instagram appears at the top of the results list.
4 Tap Instagram in the results list.

6 Tap iPhone Only, as shown in Figure 1-6.
7 Tap the Instagram app's Get button (see Figure 1-7).If you need to sign into the App Store, type your password in the Sign In to iTunes Store window. Then tap Buy. Or if you use Touch ID, place the appropriate finger or thumb on the Home button instead.

Open the Instagram website by typing www.instagram.com in your browser’s address bar. You can log in to Instagram on the web in one of two ways:
Instagram username and password: Type your Instagram username in the Username box and then type your password in the Password box. Then click or tap Log In.
Facebook account: If you prefer to use your Facebook account, click or tap Log In with Facebook. (If your browser doesn’t have your Facebook account information stored in a cookie, the Facebook window appears on your screen so you can type your username and password.) Then click or tap the Log In As button.
After you log in, you see the home page with the latest photos and videos from users you follow. The top of the screen features the Instagram logo at the left, the Search box in the center, and five icons to the right of the Search box, as shown in Figure 1-9.
