How to Post Photo to Instagram


To begin, I opened Instagram on my smartphone and here's exactly what I saw:


It's a little bit confusing, yet the switch on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the present sight you have, although that's definitely a typical user interface convention. You're on the primary feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Strange, I know.

Tap on the camera icon under-- facility!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will certainly trigger and you'll see a sneak peek of the image you're about to take:


To take an image, tap on the blue switch. To earn a (brief) video, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the switch. Faucet on the left button and also you can access your existing pictures on the phone (just what I normally utilize, using the normal phone camera app for taking the picture).

Next up, I'll fine-tune the Contrast because I discover that on my iPhone, at least, it's always simply a bit less than I choose:


Once more, utilize your finger to readjust it with the slider, and also faucet on the check mark to dedicate the change or the "X" to discard it if you alter your mind.

Right here's exactly how it looks currently:.


The image certainly looks better. To continue, tap on the "Next" web link on the top right.

Allow's begin with the inscription, something I believe is quite important for an intriguing Instagram post.

Then again, if that appears frustrating, don't worry about it as well as simply include an interesting and/or amusing message.

As soon as you're done, tap on "OK" on the leading right and you'll have the choice of doing a lot more ...


If there are recognizable people in the images who are likewise on Instagram, tap "Tag People" as well as determine them. If you desire your area identified on a map when the photo is uploaded-- don't do this if you're home!!-- after that leave the slider on "Add to Photo Map" allowed, as I have.
