Instagram Stories is one of the most popular features of the Instagram app. "Unfold" is aimed at frequent Stories users and offers a variety of templates, text tools, fonts and stickers. With more than 200 templates from collections such as "Film Frames" and "Ripped Paper" you can enhance your photos, videos and boomerangs and publish them directly through Instagram. The app was launched in 2018 and is available for free download for iOS and Android.

 

The app is free, but additional packages with filters or templates will cost you at least a few euros. Considering the small number of only ten ready-made filters, it makes sense to purchase one or the other additional package. Otherwise, for users who just like to publish one or two images on Instagram or another platform from time to time, we would consider another app with a larger selection of filters. With "Unfold" you can definitely upgrade your Instagram Stories.

 

Top 3 pros:

- more than 200 templates

- elegant design

- extra template packs available (for a price)

 

Top 2 cons:

- only ten filters in the basic version

- inconvenient route when sharing to apps besides Instagram

 

Price: Free for iOS and Android with in-App purchases

Manufacturer: Unfold Creative
