How To Upload Pictures From Computer To Instagram
Ways to post pictures to Instagram from a desktop computer browser
Many internet browsers have a method of letting you alter the "Individual Agent"-- things that tells a site what kind of gadget you're on. So, also when you're on a laptop computer or desktop computer, you could deceive a site like Instagram into showing you the mobile site. That's exactly what we're going to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's simple. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the really bottom that claims, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now open up a private searching home window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, sign in as well as click the camera button at the bottom of the display to publish a picture from your desktop computer.
Chrome
In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and log in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet symbol (top-left). The page should change to mobile view, where you'll discover a camera switch at the bottom of the screen, which lets you upload an image from your desktop computer.
Lots of Instagrammers-- myself consisted of-- shoot pictures on a dSLR camera as well as edit them on their computer system prior to publishing to Instagram. That means needing to move the finished photo to a phone (by means of AirDrop or email), which is difficult, at best.
This workaround cuts that step out, making dSLR uploads easier than ever.
