Users can now follow fellow mobile photographers for updates in a vertical stream. VSCO Cam takes a more minimalistic approach than Instagram, with a flat design and spare looking feed. You&#8217;ll have to tap on a photo in order to get more information about the photo and to interact with it.<\/p>\n<p>While similar to Instagram, VSCO Cam does offer more features for amateur and professional photographers. Tapping on a picture will reveal its info like what aperture and ISO the camera was set to. This gives photographers more of an idea of how the shot was composed. VSCO Cam&#8217;s social features are still very new, so much so that users cannot comment or &#8220;like&#8221; photos in this first iteration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-60447 aligncenter\" title=\"VSCO Grid\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-568x319.jpg\" alt=\"VSCO Grid\" width=\"568\" height=\"319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-568x319.jpg 568w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-256x144.jpg 256w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/02\/VSCO-Grid.jpg 1344w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Users may still find VSCO Cam&#8217;s curated content more compelling than the noise of photos on Instagram. VSCO Cam&#8217;s <a title=\"VSCO website\" href=\"http:\/\/vsco.co\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">website<\/a> is also more fleshed out than <a title=\"Instagram introduces web embeds\" href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/instagram-introduces-web-embeds\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram&#8217;s<\/a>. With VSCO Grid, users can view other user&#8217;s photos or their own photo timeline. Sharing is much easier too, which is something Instagram is lacking.<\/p>\n<p>Version 3.0 of VSCO Cam also brings along a bunch of improvements and new features like the Level &amp; Tilt tool to help photographers level their photos before sharing. Ordering filters and presets are also much easier, taking only one tap now.<\/p>\n<p>iOS users can get the VSCO Cam update today in the App Store but Android users will have to wait a while longer. The company promises to bring the updated social features to Android &#8220;in the near future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"VSCO Cam for iOS\" href=\"http:\/\/vsco-cam.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download VSCO Cam for iOS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a title=\"The Next Web\" href=\"http:\/\/thenextweb.com\/apps\/2014\/02\/12\/vsco-cam-iphone-takes-instagram-feed-lets-find-follow-friends\/#!vtA8t\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Next Web<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>RELATED STORIES<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/features.en.softonic.com\/the-best-alternatives-to-flappy-bird\">Flappy Bird alternatives for iOS, Android and Windows Phone<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/features.en.softonic.com\/paper-by-facebook-is-a-revolution-heres-why\">Paper by Facebook is a revolution.
