To begin, I opened Instagram on my smartphone and here's just what I saw:


It's a bit complex, but the button on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the current sight you have, even though that's definitely a common interface convention. You get on the primary feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Weird, I know.
