Start with collection
Already using Instagram content? Compare the feed you need with the way customers send you photos outside Instagram.
Read the comparison →Define the scope
Decide whether you need a storefront lookbook or a wider content operation spanning permissions and distribution.
Read the comparison →Separate galleries from campaigns
Match the app to the storefront experience and the campaign work your team actually manages.
Read the comparison →Plan for a growing library
Compare feature-based subscriptions with usage allowances before choosing a photo and video gallery.
Read the comparison →Pick a page, a handful of customer photos, and a product you want to tag. Include a video if it is part of your plan. Try the collection and publishing process, then inspect the result on your phone. That gives you something concrete to compare beyond a feature list.
