How To Upload Pictures From Computer To Instagram: Instagram introduced a huge change today, launching a fully-functional web app that allows you upload photos from a phone web browser, no app required. Instagram really did not formally add the alternative to desktop computer web browsers, but it's there-- you simply have to find it.
How to post photos to Instagram from a desktop computer browser
Most browsers have a way of letting you change the "Individual Representative"-- things that tells a site what sort of device you're on. So, also when you're on a laptop computer or desktop, you could fool a site like Instagram right into showing you the mobile site. That's exactly what we're going to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's easy. Most likely to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the really lower that says, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Currently open up a personal searching home window. Head to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, log in as well as click the camera switch below the display to upload a picture from your desktop.
Chrome
In Chrome, most likely to Instagram.com and also sign 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 display, which lets you upload a photo from your desktop computer.
Several Instagrammers-- myself consisted of-- shoot images on a dSLR video camera and edit them on their computer before posting to Instagram. That means having to transfer the finished photo to a phone (through AirDrop or email), which is cumbersome, at finest.
This workaround reduces that step out, making dSLR uploads easier than ever before.
