Working of Instagram:
In current times, mostly mobile application are build on the basis of Evolutionary model.
Almost every application need changing, modification, upgrading and addition of new features.
Evolutionary models are explicitly designed to accommodate a product that grows and changes.
Instagram was developed in 2010 as Burbn, then renamed as Instagram.
In January 2011, hashtags introduced to help users discover both photos and each other.
On May 11, 2016, Instagram revamped its design, adding a black-and-white flat design theme for

 Initially, Instagram is run as prototype to get response of people, and get fame.
 Evolution of Instagram is not stable, it changes time after time. Addition of new feature is
tested as sample to get feedback about features like removal of geotagging photos.
 Being developed in Evolutionary model, company easily modify in less time for users.
 On today, security needs of users Evolutionary model give privatizing account, handle
high risk management and resolving security issues.
