Upload Pictures To Instagram From Computer
How to publish photos to Instagram from a desktop computer web browser
A lot of browsers have a method of letting you alter the "User Agent"-- the thing that informs an internet site what kind of gadget you're on. So, also when you get on a laptop or desktop computer, you can trick a website like Instagram right into showing you the mobile site. That's just what we're going to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's very easy. Most likely to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the really bottom that says, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Now open a personal browsing window. Head to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Most likely to Instagram.com, log in and click the camera switch at the end of the display to upload 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 switch over to mobile view, where you'll locate a camera button at the end of the screen, which lets you upload an image from your desktop computer.
Several Instagrammers-- myself included-- fire photos on a dSLR video camera and also modify them on their computer system before publishing to Instagram. That suggests needing to transfer the completed image to a phone (using AirDrop or email), which is difficult, at finest.
This workaround cuts that step out, making dSLR uploads simpler than ever.
