The best ways to upload pictures to Instagram from a desktop browser

A lot of internet browsers have a means of allowing you change the "User Representative"-- the important things that tells a website what kind of device you're on. So, even when you're on a laptop computer or desktop, you can fool a site like Instagram into revealing you the mobile website. That's just what we're going to do.

Safari

On Safari, it's very easy. Most likely to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check package at the extremely bottom that says, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"

Currently open up a private surfing home window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Most likely to Instagram.com, sign in as well as click the camera switch below the display to post a picture from your desktop computer.

Chrome

In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and also log in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet symbol (top-left). The page needs to switch to mobile view, where you'll find a camera switch below the display, which lets you upload a photo from your desktop computer.

Numerous Instagrammers-- myself consisted of-- fire pictures on a dSLR video camera and modify them on their computer system prior to publishing to Instagram. That means having to transfer the finished picture to a phone (through AirDrop or email), which is cumbersome, at best.

This workaround cuts that step out, making dSLR uploads easier than ever before.
