Instagram is Bricked!
I upgraded my iPhone and iPad os to iOS10 ... So far there is one app that is suffering from it. Instagram became so slow, it is impossible to use. Hopefully, there will be a fix soon. I am very surprised that the popular app like this suffer from the upgrade.
I learned that when app becomes inopearable, it is called "BRICKED". Well, Insgtgram is Briocked.
The word "brick", when used in reference to consumer electronics, describes an electronic device such as a smartphone, game console, router, or tablet computer that, due to a serious misconfiguration, corrupted firmware, or a hardware problem, can no longer function, hence, is as technologically useful as a brick.
