Instagram has recently beefed up their web browser so users can review their account’s feed, profile, like and comment on posts, and almost every other feature that you can do within the Instagram app. The only exception, though, is that you cannot post photos or videos to the web browser.
However, there’s a workaround for this issue that would allow you to post photos or videos on our Instagram account through your computer. See below for step-by-step instructions on how to do this.
