To start, I opened Instagram on my mobile phone and below's just what I saw:


It's a little bit confusing, yet the button on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the current view you have, even though that's certainly a typical interface convention. You're on the main feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Strange, I recognize.

Faucet on the camera icon under-- facility!-- with heaven highlight. Now your camera will certainly activate as well as you'll see a sneak peek of the photo you're about to take:


To take a photo, tap on the blue switch. Making a (brief) video clip, faucet on the video camera symbol to the right of the button. Faucet on the left button and you could access your existing photos on the phone (what I normally use, using the regular phone camera app for taking the picture).

Allow's start with "Adjust" due to the fact that the image's not quite square. Quickly repaired, thankfully.

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