How To Upload Pictures From Computer To Instagram
Ways to upload pictures to Instagram from a desktop browser
Most web browsers have a method of letting you alter the "User Agent"-- things that tells a site what type of tool you're on. So, also when you get on a laptop computer or desktop, you can deceive a website like Instagram into revealing you the mobile website. That's what we're mosting likely to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's simple. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the really lower that claims, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now open a personal browsing window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, log in and also click the camera button below the display to upload a photo from your desktop computer.
Chrome
In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and log in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet icon (top-left). The page must switch over to mobile view, where you'll locate a camera switch at the end of the screen, which lets you publish a photo from your desktop.
Several Instagrammers-- myself included-- shoot images on a dSLR camera and also modify them on their computer before uploading to Instagram. That means having to move the ended up photo to a phone (through AirDrop or email), which is difficult, at best.
This workaround reduces that march, making dSLR uploads less complicated than ever before.
