People think Instagram updated its logo, and they hate it

Article by Emerald Pellot

Published on May 18, 2022

People think Instagram made its logo obnoxiously brighter. 

You may have noticed that your Instagram icon has been updated. While the design and colors are the same, people on social media are complaining that it’s now oversaturated. It’s apparently as if someone at Meta turned the brightness up on your screen by 1,000%. 

Since 2010, Instagram has had four different logos with a camera motif. The last time it spruced up the design was in 2016, when it went from the old brown camera to the flat colorful gradient. 

did the instagram logo change colours a little bit or am i crazy

“Did the Instagram logo change colors a little bit, or am I crazy?” @willohw wondered on Twitter.
