Anypic: an example of what you can build with Parse.

This isn't an Instagram clone.

1) The site doesn't mention that you have to sign in with your Facebook account to even use it.

2) One of the big reasons Instagram was "cool" or "fun" was because of the photo transformations. These aren't there either.

It's a photo sharing app. I wouldn't compare it to Instagram and I certainly wouldn't declare it as a "clone" of it.

I agree with another user commenting that the cool part about this is the tutorial [1] available to show how to make it. Why not just emphasize that instead of making this out to be something it's not?

Right on. I think Parse was being tongue-in-cheek, to show you how far you could get with their API in a short amount of time. But the tutorial is one of the more comprehensive how-to-build-something-cool ones I've seen for mobile app dev.

I really like the tutorial. The presentation on the main website is really good, too. Good work.
