Instagram update version 6.19.0 brings Color and Fade customization tools

Instagram is rolling out a new update to its Android application that will bring a few more customization tools to users. The update to version 6.19.0, which is now available in the Google Play Store, brings two new sliders: Color and Fade.

With the Fade slider, you can soften the colors in the image which is similar to reducing the saturation. The Color slider, which is arguably the more handy improvement, allows you to tint the highlights or shadows in your photo. Available colors include yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, blue, cyan and green. Take a look at the screenshots below for some more clarification.

Although there is no shortage of filters and customization features available on Instagram, perhaps these new additions will help to drive users away from other competitor apps like VSCO Cam and Snapseed. The new update is now live in Google Play, and the Instagram for iOS version 6.10.0 update will be available in the App Store.
