Instagram integration to Android & IOS help please :) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi folks,
Will try and keep this short.
I am at the moment having an Android app and an IOS app made by a professional company. It has cost me £10,000.00 for both apps.
It is a map based app with markers. When clicked on a marker an info box pops up witha Facebook icon linked to page, Twitter etc
I desperately want to add Instagram icon that links to that persons page.
I am being told that at the moment this is not possible and that the only thing that can be linked to via the icon is images.
I am after just clicking the Instagram icon and that takes you to the whole Instagram page of that person.
They are using the native Android APK and the same for IOS.
Are they correct in saying that Instagram has not yet released a SDK/API yet.
Quoted for the company email to me,
On your request to also integrate Instagram to the app, we will be unable to assist due AT THIS STAGE simply due to the fact that Instagram to date does not provide android and ios sdk/api so we cannot integrate instagram directly in any android or ios apps at present. We can still design the user interfaces and integrate the app with Facebook.
Thanks for any help folks

Hi folks,
Is there any reason why no one can answer this please?
Have I not followed rules or something? I just assumed this was the best forum on the planet to ask such a question and I am surprised no one has answered?
Can you recommend somewhere else I could possibly get answers for my question please?
Cheers!

[Q] Is it okay to put App Icons on marketing and packaging?

First of all, sorry if I have not asked this in the right place, but couldn't see a section better suited to post this.
I am currently designing some packaging for a new budget 7" Android tablet that will be released soon.
Does anybody know if there is any legal problem with using app icons from well known apps on packaging design?
I wanted to use a large image of the front of the device on the box front and feature a screen showing Mail, Angry Birds, Facebook, Twitter, Skype and Android Market. However I am not sure if this will cause legal problems with these companies and am guessing that trying to contact them direct to ask will not be a quick option (if they indeed answer at all).
Hope somebody can help.

Automatic Information Capturing

I am in process of developing an application and I was wondering if there is a way to capture users information automatically. I am drawing up a spec of application functions that I am going to have a dev team produce so I do not have app dev skillsets. That being said...
My idea was that if an user downloads an application, starts it, and the app is automatically populated with the users' phone number, name, etc any basic information automatically. Google pairs the phone with specific accounts that store such information so the data is there. I am looking for a less intrusive way and more user friendly way of creating accounts rather than direct social media login integration.
Is this something that is viable? or is it against data laws? or not possible?
Please let me know if you know of any existing methods, or if you think it is even impossible.
THANKS! :highfive:

[Q][Dolphin] Start Application using a Dolphin Plugin [please move]

Greetings, fellow developers.
I was given the assignment to develop an application that enhances the user's experience for a certain website. This app works fine, but unfortunately, you have to call it from Android's menu every time.
Since you are most likely to be using Dolphin when you want to start it, why not make a 'shortcut' in the plugin tab that launches the app?
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance :good:
(I was unable to post this on the dev forums)
I would be very grateful if a mod could move this thread to the Android developer's board, it does not belong here
*bump*
Noone? D:

[APP] Possible uses for this?

Hey guys, thinking of developing an application that is a anonymous survey / question & answer platform. All the user would have to do to sign up is enter their birth date and their gender. The user can then subscribe to categories where they want to see questions and / or surveys from. When asking a question or composing a survey, the user would select a category, then an age group and gender that they would like to get responses from. Trying to see if anyone out there would have a real use for this platform, or can think of a time in the past or a time that may occur in the future when they would want to use something like this.
Please leave any thoughts or questions here,
Thanks a lot!
