Recently, Instagram introduced a new app named as IGTV. It let users create their channels, and share videos with followers. The purpose of releasing the app is to deal with giant video sharing platforms like YouTube and Snapchat. Using the app, you can upload videos and watch videos from other Instagram creators. It is different from other video sharing platform because it let you watch the videos like you use your phone in full screen and vertical form. Apart from that, video uploading is not limited to one minute; it can go long up to one hour.
