How Do I Post A Pic On Instagram
To start, I opened up Instagram on my mobile phone as well as here's exactly what I saw:
It's a little bit confusing, but the switch on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the present view you have, even though that's absolutely a typical interface convention. You get on the major feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Strange, I know.
Faucet on the camera symbol on the bottom-- facility!-- with heaven highlight. Currently your camera will activate and also you'll see a preview of the image you will take:
To take an image, faucet on the blue button. To earn a (short) video, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the switch.

Successive, I'll fine-tune the Comparison since I locate that on my apple iphone, at the very least, it's constantly simply a little bit lower than I favor:
Once more, utilize your finger to change it with the slider, as well as faucet on the check mark to devote the modification or the "X" to discard it if you transform your mind.

If you want your location determined on a map when the image is published-- don't do this if you're house!!-- then leave the slider on "Add to Photo Map" made it possible for, as I have.
