Upload Pictures Instagram Computer

Upload Pictures Instagram Computer: Instagram presented a huge change today, introducing a fully-functional internet app that lets you upload photos from a phone internet browser, no app required. Instagram really did not officially include the option to desktop internet browsers, yet it's there-- you just need to find it.

Ways to publish photos to Instagram from a desktop web browser

Many browsers have a way of allowing you change the "Customer Agent"-- the thing that informs a website what type of gadget you get on. So, even when you get on a laptop or desktop computer, you could fool an internet site like Instagram into revealing you the mobile site. That's exactly what we're going to do.

Safari

On Safari, it's very easy. Most likely to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the very lower that claims, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"

Currently open a personal searching home window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Most likely to Instagram.com, log in and also click the camera switch at the bottom of the screen to upload a photo from your desktop.

Chrome

In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and also sign in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet symbol (top-left). The page should change to mobile view, where you'll locate a camera button below the display, which allows you post a picture from your desktop.

Lots of Instagrammers-- myself included-- shoot pictures on a dSLR camera as well as edit them on their computer before posting to Instagram. That means having to move the finished picture to a phone (by means of AirDrop or e-mail), which is cumbersome, at ideal.

This workaround reduces that step out, making dSLR uploads simpler than ever before.
