IGTV is a vertical video platform from Instagram to go against YouTube

Instagram is trying to bring a whole new concept to the world of video sharing platforms with its so-called IGTV network. It aims to work just like regular TV but with vertical videos.

The Android app is already available on Google Play and it’s gaining traction while Instagram has already reached 1 billion users, so we can assume it’s going to be a hit very soon. The difference between Instagram and IGTV, however, is that the latter pushes vertical videos only and can last up to an hour. This is probably because it’s going to be used only on smartphones.

The UI is very streamlined…
