Android Instagram-Style App Build graphic designing

I need a fully working social-media application for Android that recreates the core Instagram experience while keeping the interface simple, playful, and visually appealing. Users must be able to register and log in with just email and password, create or edit their profile, post photos and videos (including short “reel” clips), like or comment on other posts, follow or unfollow accounts, exchange direct messages, and browse a personalised feed.

A lightweight yet lively UI is important to me, so please apply modern Material components, smooth transitions, and bright accent colours that reflect a playful mood without overwhelming first-time users. Performance on mid-range devices matters more than flashy effects.

I’m working with a tight budget, so I value pragmatic, cost-effective solutions—open-source libraries, Firebase, or other economical back-end options are welcome as long as they keep data secure and the app reliable.

Deliverables I expect
• Complete Android Studio project with clean, well-commented code
• Working APK for testing and final release
• Basic admin access or scripts to moderate content and manage users
• Brief setup documentation so I can rebuild, deploy, and maintain the app myself

If you already have a modular social-media template or experience building similar apps, mention it, as rapid development is a plus. I aim to move quickly once we agree on scope and timeline.
