To start, I opened up Instagram on my mobile phone as well as below's what I saw:


It's a bit confusing, however the button on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the current view you have, although that's absolutely a typical user interface convention. You're on the primary feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Weird, I know.

Tap on the camera symbol on the bottom-- center!-- with the blue highlight. Currently your camera will certainly activate and you'll see a sneak peek of the photo you will take:


To take a picture, faucet on the blue button. Making a (brief) video clip, tap on the video camera symbol to the right of the button.

Next up, I'll tweak the Contrast because I find that on my apple iphone, a minimum of, it's constantly simply a bit lower than I choose:


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