How To Download Any Instagram Photo On Your iPhone or other Mobile Device

Yes, there are apps that do this for you, but they tend to be filled with ads, watermark the image, or try to steal your login information. 

STEPS:

  1.  Open the Instagram app and browse to the photo you want to save.
  2.  Copy the link to the photo using the share buttons.
  3.  Exit Instagram & open View Source or a similar app which lets you view a page's source code.
  4.  Paste the share URL into the app and retrieve the page's source code.
  5.  Scroll down and find where the link for the image is. Then highlight and copy it.
  6.  Exit the app and open a web browser (Safari, Google Chrome, etc). Paste the image URL into the web browser.
  7.  Press and hold on the image once it loads to pop up the "Save Image" dialogue. Tap "Save Image" and you are all set!


I also made a how to video detailing this same process so check it out below if you need any additional help.

Locket - Get Paid Everytime You Swipe to Unlock Your Android Phone!


A friend of mine who is really into the newest things for android devices recently told me that he was getting paid each time he unlocks his phone to use it. Now, obviously at first this sounds too good to be true, but after I thought about it a little it actually made a lot of sense. What better place to display ads than the lockscreen of people's phones? No one really cares about what's on their lockscreen, so why not put some good looking advertisement there and then pay the user a little bit every time they swipe to unlock their phone? Locket does exactly that. 
Don't expect to become a billionaire off this btw, you only get paid $.01 each time you unlock your screen (and to save you some time: yes, the app can sense when you are just locking and unlocking your phone over and over so don't think about gaming the system). So far, about a day after I signed up, I have earned about $.40. Not much, but when you figure that in a month I would make $12 simply by doing something that I already do, then it is a no-brainer.
Check out this video I made reviewing it.
