How To Upload A Picture To Instagram From Computer
How to publish pictures to Instagram from a desktop internet browser
Many web browsers have a means of allowing you change the "User Agent"-- things that tells an internet site what type of gadget you're on. So, even when you get on a laptop computer or desktop computer, you could deceive a website like Instagram into showing you the mobile website. That's exactly what we're mosting likely to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's simple. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the very bottom that says, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now open up a personal browsing home window. Visit Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, log in as well as click the camera switch at the end of the screen to publish a photo from your desktop computer.
Chrome
In Chrome, most likely to Instagram.com and also sign in. Now right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet symbol (top-left). The page should change to mobile view, where you'll discover a camera button below the display, which allows you post an image from your desktop.
Lots of Instagrammers-- myself included-- fire photos on a dSLR camera and also modify them on their computer system prior to publishing to Instagram. That means needing to move the completed photo to a phone (through AirDrop or email), which is difficult, at ideal.
This workaround cuts that march, making dSLR uploads simpler than ever before.
