[![Instagram for iOS gets a newly retroinspired camera, delves into recent photo history](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/12/instagram-3-2.jpg) ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/10/instagram-for-ios-gets-a-newly-reworked-camera/)
[Instagram](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Instagram/) knows it can't stay still just because it's [under Facebook's wing](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/06/facebook-completes-acquisition-of-instagram/). Accordingly, a new iOS update has delivered a (quite frankly welcome) remake of the camera and editing interfaces. While snapping photos, there's a more stylized interface with an optional grid to perfect that rule-of-thirds composition, if you like keeping shots neat and tidy. The app makes a greater effort to acknowledge past photos, too: everyone sees the most recent camera roll photo, while [iPhone 5](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/18/apple-iphone-5-review/) owners' extra screen real estate gives them a new camera roll image picker to sift through their archives. Android users don't get the tweaked layout at this stage, but they do share the same obligatory new image filter, Willow. Check the source links for a fresh coat of paint on a day-to-day app.
