Columbia, SC (WLTX) -- You may have heard of InstaGram from your friends - there has been a lot of buzz around it for a while - but what is it?

If you're an iPhone user you've probably been familiar with this one for a while - the photo tweaking app had been exclusively on iphones until just a few months ago.

If you've visited the WLTX page on Facebook recently - you've seen the new tab - InstaGram photos - where you can see a gallery of our pictures we've made using the InstaGram app.

It's had almost a cult following - all for putting filters on photos you shoot with your phone to make them look like old photos.

Personally I love it - you can do some pretty cool effects with it - like tweak the lighting, put different borders around pictures, even do a blur to create a focal point in one picture.

It's available now on the iPhone and the Android, it's free to download and install, and once you're using it you can connect it to Twitter, Facebook, and more.
