Steepshot.io - The 'Instagram' of the STEEM Blockchain
Steepshot.io
The 'Instagram' of STEEM
Have you heard of Steepshot.io? It is a gateway to the STEEM blockchain that uses an interface very similar to 'Instagram'. Currently the App is available in the Google Play Store. Eventually it will be in the App Store for iOS users. Steepshot is an awesome way to share pictures on the STEEM blockchain. The simplicity of the application makes it easy to create a quick post based around a single image.
The Feed
The feed on Steepshot.io will consist soley of posts that were created using the Steepshot Application. On the contrary, when you make a post using Steepshot.io, it will show up mirrored on your Steemit feed.
Here's a look at my Steepshot feed from a few moments ago.
Login
When logging in to Steepshot.io you are only required to provide a Posting Key. Therefore, Steepshot will never have access to funds associated with your STEEM account.
Overall Steepshot is a great tool for STEEM. I think it will play a large role in the on-boarding of new users over time. At the end of 2017, Instagram was seeing almost 800 million active users. Steepshot is a way to create Instagram-style posts and earn from it. When the masses find out about this brilliant application, they will come flooding. Try it out for yourself!

Thanks For Reading!

Thanks for the heads up! So is there any way to opt out of the pics going to your Steemit wall?? I would like to be able to do more posts over there, but not have them all sent to my Steemit page.
Due to the nature of the blockchain, I don’t believe so.
Steemit broadcasts every post associated with a given STEEM account, whether it was made using eSTEEM, Busy, ChainBB or any other STEEM-based app.
I am looking forward to trying it when it makes it to IOS
tip!
Thanks so much for tip @tattoodjay!
You can try it out now on the web if you'd like. I have iOS too so I am very excited to see it in the app store, but the web version is cool too!
I did do one post from it at one stage but I would likely use it more from my phone
I can agree with that
😎👍😎
Im going to try this RIGHT now! ;-) thanks for the heads up
No problem, let me know what you think!
Ever since I started with Steepshot I lost almost all interest in Instagram. Also use the #steepshot hashtag once in a while they'll upvote your pics.
Exactly... once all the Instagram users hear about this, it will be a ghost town over there!
I'm trying my best to spread the word!!! So sick of IG and FB. 5 Billion in profit in the last quarter. From what?
Goes to show what the true market cap of STEEM can be... combine YouTube + FB + IG and all other lame social networks value and we're going to be in for a sweeet ride!
And so happy I made it onto Steemit a month ago before that first crazy price jump. Loving it!
Wow, thanks for the heads up! Posted my first Steepshot right after reading this post!
no problem! glad you found this useful
Yay!
I love Instagram but have gone cold turkey since joining Steemit about 6 weeks ago and realising how very much more satisfying it is to have real and meaningful interactions with folks.
Thanks everso for the heads up - off to sign up now.
:)
You have some cool shots on your feed.
Incidently/coincidently I posted an Instagram image here earlier today. You can see it here if you fancy: https://steemit.com/photography/@ldacey-laforge/be-the-light-you-wish-to-see-in-our-world
Happy days!

Cheers! Can’t blame you for that! STEEM is the most fulfilling social network in existence at the moment. When you sign into Steepshot you use your STEEM username (@ldacey-laforge) and the private posting key found in the permissions section of your wallet.
Love the idea and love how it turned out. Albeit I must admit that it's rather slow on actually posting the picture (took about 15 minutes after clicking ready to the actual post on Steemit, still nowhere to be found on @steepshot, now about 8 hours ago).
I have not had that issue (yet).... granted I have only made 2 or 3 posts so far.
Great post back vote please ? :)
interessant !
which key i need to write to sign in ?
The private posting key found in the permissions section of your wallet

You've just answered my curiosity about steepshot but unfortunately it's not on ios yet. Somehow thank you for posting this and made me knowledgeable about it 😊😁
No problem! You can still try it on the web from a computer if you'd like!
yes, i tried to sign up on the web, but where can i see the posting key? can u help me :)
Go to your wallet on Steemit and go to the “Permissions” section. Then you will need to copy the private posting key
i got it. thank you so much. you've been very helpful. i hope to see more of your great post. sure i'll upvote them once my sp will be high :) thanksssss!
No problem my friend, thanks for stopping by!
Please also check my post about it. I mentioned you in it :)
I consider this like instagram for steemit. I just wish they wouldn't have added the huge steepshot image recently.
