Instagram\u2019s still growing at a rapid pace, having added 100 million new monthly active users in just a month since it last reported a new figure. It now has 800 million users engaging with the service on at least a monthly basis, the company revealed on Monday at an event in NYC<\/a>, and it has 500 million using the service on a daily basis, too.<\/p>\n

Instagram announced the 700 million monthly active user milestone in April. It grew from 600 million to that in four months, meaning it accrued its latest growth at around the same clip. Despite the social network\u2019s huge user population, its growth isn\u2019t slowing down, putting it on a path to potentially catch up to parent network Facebook\u2019s user number down the road.<\/p>\n

Instagram also told TechCrunch that it now has 2 million advertisers on the platform, which is up from 1 million in March. Most of that growth has come from SMBs, the company says.<\/p>\n

The company also said that time spent by users viewing video on Instagram is up over 80 percent year over year. Further, users are producing more video \u2013 four times as many per day as they were last year, in fact.<\/p>\n

These stats are encouraging for anyone investing in Instagram as a platform, and for Facebook\u2019s larger ambitions. But they\u2019re likely discouraging to Snapchat, one of Instagram\u2019s main rivals for user attention. Instagram\u2019s skyrocketing growth has come as the company copied and implemented a number of Snapchat product experiences, including Stories.<\/p>\n

Edit: An earlier version of this article listed August at the date for the 700 million MAU milestone \u2013 this in fact occurred in April. We regret the error.<\/em><\/p>\n
