Instagram freezes my phone

Hello all,
I have been having issues with Instagram over probably the past four months (at least). Every time I go through my Instagram feed, particularly over a video, my phone completely freezes and I have to restart it. (I'm using the original Sony Xperia Z). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, cleared the cache and so on, and the problem still occurs. I've read through some other forums and never really got a single defined answer as to how this problem can be fixed. Is anyone else having this problem? Could it be a problem with my phone or would it be a problem with the app itself?
Thanks
