I have Instagram on mine, but it's not available through Amazon's own app store.

First thing you need to do is on the Settings menu, go to Device and ensure 'Allow installation of applications from unknown sources' is turned ON.

You need to download an app called 1Mobile Market from the Amazon app store. Using this app you can download other apps. Grab the essentials like Google Chrome (much better than the stock Silk browser), Google Maps, Street View and YouTube, as well as Instagram.

Note that sometimes this app will alert you that apps need updating. You cannot update apps downloaded from Amazon's store using the 1Mobile Market update tool, so ignore any update alerts.
