there are sometime, this work. I check the "data" it refered. I think it is about the tag "photobomb" . for some reason, instagram return nil for my tag. I guess this is the reason.

Have you already addressed the warning on line 19 of THAppDelegate.m? If not, it appears you'll need to register as a developer on Instagram and replace the Client ID on line 22 of that same file, once you're registered. This may explain why you're not getting any data back. Beyond that, I'm not sure what would be holding you back.

yes, I have registered on instagram. and removed the warning. It will run on my iphone. but not in simulator. when it is in iphone. It will run with default tag photobomb. if I change photobomb to something else. it will crash.

Interesting. I'm not sure what would be causing the problem.

If I think of anything in the near future, I'll post back ASAP. Good luck!

The problem is that *urlString is wrong, it can't find anything. Check if syntax of this line is correct

NSString *urlString = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/photobomb/media/recent?access_token=%@", self.accessToken]; and when you replace the word "photobomb" make sure that you don't delete anything else.

Yes by default the limit is 20, but you can add at the end of url count=a_number

NSString *urlString = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/photobomb/media/recent?access_token=%@&count=100", self.accessToken];

In my case I put 100, and if there is not 100, it will show you how many are.......
