Plus, you don’t have to remember all your hashtags or go back and copy all your hashtags from a previous photo. Rather than saving all your most used hashtags, I find Focalmark to be a great way to mindlessly add hashtags to your photos to better expand your profile’s discoverability. Once you fill in all or some of the variables, Focalmark spits out up to 30 hashtags for you to copy and paste into your next Instagram post caption. Focalmark asks you for the category of photograph (say, “travel,” “beach,” “coffee,” etc.), the location of the photo, and the type of camera you used to shoot the photo. Regardless, Focalmark is a great way to stay on top of the hashtag trends in Instagram. It seems every photo you discover in the Discover tab of Instagram is tagged to the nines, leaving you wondering if it’s actually possible for good photography to reach Instagram’s vast audience without all the ugly text in the caption. I’ve used Focalmark for a little while, so I admit this may not fit the category of “new apps.” However, it’s one of those handy photo-utility apps that likely wouldn’t need its own review.įocalmark is a hashtag generator for Instagram. There are millions of apps to try out on any given day, so here are three we’re trying this week. Sometimes a new app debuts in a given category and, while it shows promise, doesn’t quite live up to our pick for the best in that category.

Sometimes an app is so good at what it does, it becomes the default app for the task and is rarely questioned. There are many apps that grace the Mac and iOS App Stores that simply don’t get enough attention or admiration.
