Based on the data on this page, Instagram Feed Social is the stronger choice for most Wix App Market merchants — 4.4★ vs Social Media Stream's 2.6★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: Instagram Feed Social at Free plan available, Social Media Stream at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Social Media Stream has the larger user base (1,248 reviews vs 227), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Instagram Feed Social's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Instagram Feed Social; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Social Media Stream's 1,248-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Instagram Feed Social's broader-but-shallower coverage.

AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
