What is IGTV?

IGTV or Instagram TV is the online video platform of Instagram that works from a mobile application independent of iOS and Android. It is different from the function of videos integrated in the mobile applications of the social network, because the videos are not intended for the inspiration of the moment, but rather for the creators of content and companies.

Thus, it offers long-lasting videos and presents them in vertical format, so that they can be more comfortably appreciated by smartphone users. These will be able to watch IGTV videos without having to use both hands and without turning the screen of their devices.
