How To Upload Photo On Instagram From Computer
Ways to publish photos to Instagram from a desktop web browser
A lot of browsers have a method of letting you alter the "User Agent"-- the thing that tells a site what kind of device you're on. So, even when you get on a laptop or desktop computer, you can trick a site like Instagram into revealing you the mobile website. That's just what we're going to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's easy. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the very bottom that states, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Currently open a private browsing home window. Visit Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Most likely to Instagram.com, log in and also click the camera button at the end of the display to post a picture from your desktop computer.
Chrome
In Chrome, go to Instagram.com as well as log in. Now right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet icon (top-left). The web page ought to switch to mobile view, where you'll locate a camera button below the display, which lets you post a photo from your desktop.
Lots of Instagrammers-- myself included-- shoot images on a dSLR cam and also modify them on their computer prior to posting to Instagram. That means having to move the finished image to a phone (through AirDrop or e-mail), which is difficult, at best.
This workaround reduces that step out, making dSLR uploads simpler compared to ever.
