The GitHub source shows that the hooks were updated ~18 hours ago. Having a look at the hooks, I can see that the latest version XInsta works for is Instagram 80.0.0.14.110. Just switch to this version and everything will work. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] thxcertified:
Maybe not everything, but most things...

My Instagram freezes and closes when going back on stories and story privacy is also not working.

For download options, everything seems to work fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] johnwaynegacy:
Is this abandoned, 2.1 is my last update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
Just because the app itself hasn't been updated in a bit doesn't mean the hooks (what really matters) aren't updated often, so no this isn't abandoned
[Xposed Framework Modules] johnwaynegacy:
Well, I updated my hooks when I was pushed 2.1. I have checked "often" for the newest hooks and I already had them. I checked again just now, and the hooks I installed when I updated many months ago are the latest according to the hooks updater.

Does it mean it's abandoned when the hooks aren't updated "often"?
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
No it just means either the dev is busy or that currently the supported version by the hooks (github or pastebin) is the last known version of instagram that works

However you can always enable experimental hooks option and try or if there's user updated hooks you can use that by manually changing it in settings (at the way bottom)
[Xposed Framework Modules] johnwaynegacy:
I understand, when they update the hooks often it's not abandoned, and when they don't update them at all it's not abandoned.:rolleyes:
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
There's really no way to know if it is our isn't, but at least the app (module) works and the only real thing that needs constant updates when possible (from any sources, given whomever knows what they're doing) is the hooks, so even if this doesn't get updates in a while, look around to see if anyone else is doing any unofficial hooks for this app, it's the only other way

Or do what i do, i check the hooks (first 6 numbers are last supported version, it's a build number not like really literally the apps version numbering) & go to apkmirror and find the corresponding app version

EDIT

For some reason the hooks are indeed updated, but the app just won't download it even though the file is up on his github page (hooks updated 2 days ago), you'll have to download it manually (link below) and put the file in the .instagram folder (overwrite the previous)

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iHelp101/XInsta/master/Hooks.txt

Last instagram version supported is v80.0.0.14.110 (141753)

On edxposed instagram crashes using xinsta, anyone using it with EdXposed?? Please tell me the procedure to make it work
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
I am using the latest xinsta with insta ver. 76 It works perfect however stories privacy is broken disable it. It may be causing the issue
[Xposed Framework Modules] Orangjahat:
Even worst I'm using ig 67 to get story privacy & download working perfectly, but it's doesn't matter because i don't use any IG feature. In this case i don't have any freeze and lag issue with edexposed.
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
I dont have any lag and some people reported hooks have been updated to 80 so most probably today i will upgrade to v. 80 Why are you using such an old version of ig?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Howlin1:
I have always had trouble downloading the images and videos from the 9gag account. When I check the logs it says:

20190223_232544 - Download Error - java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/Download/Instagram/20190223_9GAG: Go Fun The World_1986075289075168003.mp4 (No such file or directory)

What's odd about that is that isn't the save path I have set for downloading images and videos. Anything else I download from other accounts go to the correct download path but not this one. If I do make a folder in downloads called Instagram the images and videos will download to that one and not the correct one I am unsure why. I tried changing the save location to downloads/Instagram and then change it back but it still saves it in downloads/Instagram. I did kill Instagram each time after making those changes.

Is there a reason this is happening?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mr.Zombie:
Hello there. Somehow i just can't manage to make it work on v80. Any idea how? Checked my hooks.txt. it show's 141753. I assumed it updated to the latest version thought but it doesn't work. Any idea?
[Xposed Framework Modules] MeExilex3:
Has anyone gotten this to work well with the VirtualXposed app?

https://github.com/android-hacker/VirtualXposed

I really wanna use this mod but I have an unrooted S8+. I've been seeing some users having problems with laggin and crashes and was wondering if it's the same with the VirtualXposed. Any advice will be appreciated thanks!
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
Set it to alternative source then close the app, copy & paste (overwrite) over the current hooks file you have, clear your instagram cache and force kill it before trying again

Make sure you're still on the version of instagram i talked about, but chances are the hooks might have been updated again for a newer version so double check + check apkmirror
[Xposed Framework Modules] fantamadnesss:
Hello, Just wanted to report that on pie with magisk and Ed Xposed module and version 80.0.0.14.110 everything is working. Just download the hooks from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iHelp101/XInsta/master/Hooks.txt and put them in the right folder then in X insta settings in download options select xinsta method and you are all set. Disable auto update in PlayStore for Instagram!

[MENTION=5712278]iHelp101[/MENTION] Thx for updating hooks for IG 81, but i have an important issue when downloading video, its downloaded as image not as video. Pls investigate it. I already create bug report on github https://github.com/iHelp101/XInsta/issues/91
[Xposed Framework Modules] epicboy:
Anyone else getting a force close when wanting to navigate back to a previous story?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Orangjahat:
Laggy very often when i using 80 sometimes fc when i swipe ig story. the reason why i'm using ig 67 cause all feature xinsta is fully working, even PBO substratum still compatible with dark theme. so it's fine
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
I dont have such issue and i am using ethereal substratum theme so idk about pbo
[Xposed Framework Modules] GoDLiKeRiK:
On Instagram 79.x (maybe 78.x) & 80.0.14.110 XInsta doesn't block first ad in 75% cases when i open Instagram. Hooks github latest. Its been 3+ weeks when this started, maybe Instagram server changed code for the first ad, idk...
[Xposed Framework Modules] PokemonTotalWar:
I'm still on 78 because it has the least issues for me and I often get ads that appear but then disappear as soon as I scroll past them (if I scroll back up, it's gone), and sometimes will disappear on the middle of the screen, just leaving the name of the company Instagram on my screen. It's weird.
[Xposed Framework Modules] IceHotKilla:
Me. The issue is caused by 'story privacy' enabled in XInsta.

Instagram v78 is working fine
[Xposed Framework Modules] Ram1R:
Good, but images or videos in stories can't download (Download item is not displayed)
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
False. Mine shows the option and can download

Hooks work fine, even with the last known supported instagram, only thing that doesn't work is story videos being saved as images, to fix that don't update insta and use the version i had put in my previous reply

It'll still work even if you update the hooks
[Xposed Framework Modules] _lastx:
Hi,

I'm still on v75 which works just fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] okchinmaya:
Is "Copy comments on tap" working for you? It hasn't been working for me since the last few updates.
[Xposed Framework Modules] jabarel:
doesent works, the Hooks are overwrite when i open instagram app. you put Hooks on root of phone in a hide folder named .instagram? and also i have a error.txt there, so something happens. Can you be more specific ? i get same error.txt on oreo too.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sjamie:

I cannot download videos from stories and even posts it says downloading photo and just downloads a single frame from the video rather than the complete video. Help! I am currently using latest xinsta with latest hooks and Instagram version 81!
[Xposed Framework Modules] DaFelix:
Where is that "right folder"? I was searching a lot for it, but couldn't find it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] shadowstep:
The folder is hidden, maybe that's why it isn't visible for you. Should be in the root of your /sdcard. For me, the file is in /sdcard/.Instagram/Hooks.txt.
[Xposed Framework Modules] okchinmaya:
Instagram DMs are super laggy for me to a point that everytime I swipe for direct messages, the app force closes. Has anyone found a solution? ☹️
[Xposed Framework Modules] Op_Flashpoint:

Also, the story view hider also doesn't work.

Can you kindly share your hooks file??
[Xposed Framework Modules] NAerop:
don't work long tap on profile photo :( only for me?

xinsta 2.1.0 instagram 82.0.0.13.119
[Xposed Framework Modules] j1gga84:
Maybe I found a solution to use Instagram like XInsta but without Xposed, even on Pie :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.friendly.instagram

I use the Facebook app from this developer and it is awesome, there is also a beta program and the developer is very open for suggestions :)

The big advantage is that the bloated Instagram app is not longer needed :)

The only thing that misses is insta messages and insta video..

I asked the Developer if he will implement this.

I cannot get any version of Instagram to work properly

I have tried almost every version of Instagram from 68 to 83 and cannot get hardly any features of x insta to work. Running Android pie stock, Ed exposed, latest xinsta

Can anyone provide exactly what version of IG they are using exactly?

How exactly you got everything to work, step by step specifically, I've tried everything available on this thread, only thing that is working is downloading images..

Thanks

Can you explain what exactly I'm supposed to do on that site? What stuff do I have to copy? Thanks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rizezky:
Quick report, the latest and greatest instagram (83) seems to be working guys. Only problem is stop timer on story for photos would stop at the beginning not the end, and clicking right make you go to the next person's story instead of next story of current person.
[Xposed Framework Modules] flamery:
hi guys, Android P and Taichi (v5.05-20) IG (83.0.0.20.111)

Downloading pics and vids from the feed works perfectly, but trying to download from a story, whether its a pic or img fails everytime, toast message:

"TaiChi prevents Instragram from crashing:de.robv.android.xposed.XposedHelpers$InvocationTargetError: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Length=1;index=1"
[Xposed Framework Modules] nightwolf410:
Same here with all last 4 versions I have tried. I updated hooks properly based on apk I install but it still keep crashing. I will try taichi if it works, couldn't install yesterday, giving me error in Chinese saying that I shouldn't modify taichi or something like that, not sure if it's relevant with root access so I will try it without root.
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
Tai chi has issues and drops support after a new release. Most people have shifted to EdXposed as it is pretty stable now. I prefer you the same.

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 PM ----------

I dont have any issues with xinsta on edxposed. Been using it since release of edxposed. I am currently running latest xinsta with latest hooks and Instagram ver. 80.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nightwolf410:
I managed to make it work with taichi but will check out the new version of Edxposed, I just realized it's updated 3 days ago, I had 2.9.8. I will give it a try now, it would be much better if it works properly since taichi is not supporting all xposed modules. Thank you for informing :good:

Btw seems latest hooks for disabling double tap to like is not working for multiple pictures in one post. It works if there is only 1 photo or video in one post but doesn't work if there are multiple photos or videos.
[Xposed Framework Modules] demonoidmaster:
i mean i kinda explained it pretty simply, if you didn't understand that then idk what to tell you

---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

Check the hooks file, first 6 numbers are instagram build number, find it on apkmirror, download, install

Github has the updated hooks, xinsta app isn't downloading them right anymore for some reason, but in xinsta set default hook to alternate source and put the hooks file from github in .instagram folder

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iHelp101/XInsta/master/Hooks.txt
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
Yup some small issues here and there like stories privacy and the double tap on multiple post, but otherwise most functions work properly like disable swipe gesture, privacy lock, disabling double tap on single picture, downloading. And to mention I tries latest hooks on v81 but it does not work properly. So i am currently using insta v80
[Xposed Framework Modules] kocheko:
There is a similar app to this discontinued project? Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] smartymcfly:
This app is not a discontinued project.
[Xposed Framework Modules] flamery:
I have a locked bootloader so unfortunately it's not an option for me. I found instaultra which will do me for now
[Xposed Framework Modules] KChoudhry:
If you are out of warranty, I prefer to unlock bootloader and if not don't use third party apps as they may have privacy issues and no one knows if you can get banned and also to mention whatsapp also has started banning users on third party whatsapp clients as they say it is against their terms and conditions!
[Xposed Framework Modules] flamery:
Thanks but my device is brand new and bootloader cannot be unlocked (Huawei)!
[Xposed Framework Modules] MaXAiRO:
I've been using latest XInsta with Instagram 79 on the latest OOS Oreo 8.1 for a long time and everything has been working 100%.

Now that I updated to Pie + latest Magisk + EdXposed, even though XInsta is active none of the features work no matter how many times I rebooted or killed/reopened Instagram.

I even tried manually adding hooks.txt as suggested by [MENTION=7086291]demonoidmaster[/MENTION] but still none of the features work as if it's not enabled at all. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I tested all versions 75 through 80 and then 83, most of the features worked but disable double tap to like, stories privacy and the option to look at a story indefinitely don't work. So I'll stay on 83 patiently waiting for hooks update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] KaMyKaSii:
I also had problems with XInsta stopping working after upgrading to EdXposed 0.3.0.0 beta 1. Which exact version of Instagram has the functions of downloading posts/stories working for you? If possible, also tell the version code. Thank you!
[Xposed Framework Modules] MaXAiRO:
I could successfully download everything (stories, pictures, profile pictures) in every version I mentioned, even the v83 I'm using now, even though the toast says that the download failed. I always download the stable one, nodpi or 280-640p. Now I use v83 (144612598).

Any chance you can test versions 65 through 70 to check if the features I mentioned that don't work, work? You can take a titanium backup of the version you currently use and every time you install a new one, you can restore just data and it works fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] IceHotKilla:

Hey guys, xinsta was working fine on oreo for me with xposed magisk, i uninstalled it for some reason and installed it back again and it stopped working. Idk what's wrong I've tried reinstalling xposed and xinsta but it didn't work. I've faced similar issues in the past and downgrading xinsta seems to work sometimes. The thing is, when i reinstall xinsta all of my config and hooks are restored and idk how can i clean install xinsta anymore.

I'd appreciate your help, Thanks.

Where to go to find sdcard/.Instagram/folder?
[Xposed Framework Modules] smartymcfly:
the dot in front of a name of folder or file on Android makes that file or folder hidden. You will find it when you turn the ability to see hidden files in the exact place it says.

Edit: I personally use "Solid explorer" . Some people like "root explorer", "fx explorer", or "mixplorer" and it depends on each one if you hidden files or if you have to turn that on in the settings or drop down menu.

[Xposed Framework Modules] IceHotKilla:
Can anyone tell me which version of Instagram that works best?

I mean with XInsta (Stories Privacy & Pic Download options)?
[Xposed Framework Modules] MaXAiRO:
I have a serious issue with latest XInsta and Instagram 83 on Pie.

When I begin looking at stories from the top bar in the feed, after I see all stories of the first person, every time I tap right to see the next one, instead of seeing all stories of each person, it always jumps to just the first story of the next person (even if they have 10 stories each). Also, if the last story of the first person is a video, the sound of the video keeps playing in the background in all the following stories I see.

I've had this issue for days and a workaround is to see each person's stories by their profile. I've tried both auto and manually adding hooks using the txt file and changing each relevant setting in Xinsta as many people suggest.

Other than that, all features work except for:

-copy comment on tap

-sometimes there is the follow indicator even in accounts that don't follow you

-pin/save download (long press / hold doesn't work anymore)

-Stories Privacy

Please state what hooks you are using, because for me many hooks failed.

I was previously on v75.0.0.23.99 where almost all hooks worked. Now I'm on v84.0.0.21.105 and Stories Privacy hook doesn't work.

Date Formatting, Disable Like Button, Hide Suggestions, Change Options Order, Disable Stories Timer and Hide Stories all work.

I'm using the hooks that were updated 7 hours ago on XInsta's github.

I'm on Android Pie with EdXposed.
