Tablet and smartphone owners generally opt for a particular mobile platform over others for a wide variety of reasons. In a lot of cases, you simply get staunch iOS fans who would never touch an Android device, let alone accept it as their main point of usage. Conversely, the same can be said for certain Android device owners who can't fathom the idea of moving over to the dark side. For others however, the choice often comes down to things like security, stability, aesthetic appeal of the device hardware and OS interface, and even personal considerations like how much the device costs. If you do care about the stability of a device and platform, then Blancco's "The State of Mobile Device Performance and Health" research report provides some interesting information about the stability of Android devices compared to the iPhone.

It probably won't come as any great surprise to learn that Alphabet-owned Google is continuously working on internal projects of both the hardware and software variety.

Instagram is undeniably one of the most popular mobile apps available on smartphone devices today. The now Facebook-owned company was classed as innovative and unique in the way it allowed photographs to be captured, edited and shared when it launched back in October 2010.
