There’s no denying the significance of Instagram in our daily lives and professional lives. We love to scroll through our IG feeds to see what our friends and family are doing. As influencers, it’s the way many content creators monetize their lives. Our CEO Nadia Jones noticed brands are increasingly interested in influencer marketing and influencers who have genuine, engaging followings. What are the best apps to grow your Instagram following in 2019? We’ll walk you through several our community members love and ask for your recommendations in the comments.
First, we need to recognize that while Instagram is known for beautiful photos, Instagram TV’s (IGTV) engagement is growing. In 2018, Instagram announced it reached one billion users. (See Instagram hits 1 billion monthly users, up from 800M in September via TechCrunch). You may have noticed more IGTV videos in your feed as soon as you open the Instagram app. It allows content creators to shoot videos on their mobile devices with the look and feel of hosting a talk show. IGTV users can upload content that lasts up to 10 minutes and a select number of users can upload even longer clips.

Best Hashtags for Instagram
To connect with like-minded people and followers, there’s no denying the value in hashtags. You can find related content by searching for certain hashtags. You can also get discovered by using relevant hashtags. The app, Best Hashtags for Instagram, is an easy to use tool for using hashtags strategically.
“This app has all popular hashtags, implemented convenient search. You are able to add your own tags, mix them with existing and save them in a separate card for reuse. In other words, you can find best and top tags for likes for Instagram to increase your followers.”
In app purchases on Best Hashtags for Instagram can cost up to $2.99.
Tailwind
We shared why we loved Tailwind as one of our favorite Instagram Apps before and it’s worth mentioning again in 2019. The Tailwind App allows scheduling for both Pinterest and Instagram and helps users discover hashtags to build their community and grow their following. Using the scheduler, you can plan your posts and create that visual, branded look through your upcoming six posts. Tailwind Tribes, which launched late 2017, lets bloggers and influencers connect and reshare content in tribes by influencers that share similar audiences.
Using Tailwind, users can also upload photos to Instagram from a desktop. And soon, you’ll be able to schedule out a month’s worth of Instagram content through Tailwind. Instagram recently announced that it would allow scheduling directly to the platform for Instagrammers using a partner-approved Instagram scheduler, like Tailwind.
Preview App
If you need a more all around Instagram app that manages multiple functions, consider the Preview App.
“Preview is your visual planner for Instagram. Predict what your feed will look like before you post anything on Instagram. It has all the features you need in one app. No more switching between multiple apps.”
Among the other functions that the Preview App allows is to schedule posts, editing (whitening tool, blemish removers and memes), and the ability to manage multiple accounts.
