Everyone’s favorite iPhone photo app, Instagram (iTunes link – FREE), got an awesome awesome update today. And the biggest thing for me, “Full res” output. You can now export your images at 1936×1936 on the iPhone 4 & 1536×1536 on the iPhone3GS which will make them ideal for printing etc.
There are loads of other features that have been added, from the instagram blog post detailing the changes:

You’ve asked for more, and we’re excited to provide four brand new filters: Amaro, Rise, Hudson, and Valencia.
