Change to Instagram API hinders access to public content

Recently, Instagram changed its API to introduce a Sandbox Mode that limits the access to public Instagram content before an app actually get approved by Instagram. Therefore, I got a 400 error when I tried to run the app at the end of this video.

In order to ensure that I could continue with the course, I just opted to access my own Instagram photos through this URL:

https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/media/recent/?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN

Simon, I'm have having this same issue. Where/how did you incorporate this url into your project?
