v0.7.0 - SCInsta Revamp!

[SoCuul]

Tested on Instagram v384.0.0

I am so excited to announce the latest version of SCInsta! I've been working almost non-stop for the past 2 weeks improving almost every single aspect of the tweak, and pushing myself to create the best experience possible.

I'm so happy with the end-result and I hope this new version makes Instagram more pleasant to use in one way or another.

I would recommend checking out the settings after updating to get a good idea of the new functionality that's been added to the tweak, as there's a fair amount!

Important

The tweak settings button has now moved to the profile page, and can be accessed by long pressing on the account options button.

Tip

Consider donating to help support the development of this tweak!

This tweak is and always will be fully-open source without any features/code locked behind a paid version.
Donations really help fund the continued development of SCInsta, especially as Instagram is an app that changes frequently.

Please do not feel required to donate if you do not have the means to. Sharing SCInsta with others to help the project thrive and grow already contributes greatly to the longevity of this tweak 😄

Is FLEXing is needed for the tweak to fully functional or you can remove that? I cannot use it seem like it's conflicting with other tweaks.

[SoCuul]

Are you using any other tweaks alongside SCInsta?

Please send the crash log from Instagram.

Please send the crash log from Instagram.

I have also tried to enable only SCInsta and FLEXing of SCInsta with Choicy, means that I only use SCInsta for my Instagram without any other tweaks but it still stuck at start-up page (like in the above screenshot) and it stuck there for about 5-10 seconds and then the app closed without any crashed logs provided.

just sent a log of Instagram from Settings to your email bro

This is confirmed to be caused because of internal changes in the Instagram app with v285.0.0
I would recommend using Instagram version v284.0.0 to keep using the tweak, until it's updated to be compatible with the newest Instagram version.

Feel free to follow the issue progress at #164

[davidkh88]

confirmed it is now working with Instagram v384.0 and with any other tweaks enabled.

[KevinNitroG]

Can we install the tweak with trollfools...?
Trying injecting the rootless version and the app crashed

[SoCuul]

I've tracked down the crash cause and it should be fixed with the new v0.7.1 SCInsta release 😁

Make sure to use Instagram version 284.0.0 for compatibility though.
