Upload images to Instagram on a Mac making use of Safari
Instagram is first-and-foremost developed to be utilized on a mobile phone, however you could see, like and discuss pictures as well as videos on the desktop site. Simply visit www.instagram.com and login to your account.
You cannot, nonetheless, upload pictures or videos to your account there - or at the very least you can not initially glance. There is a method to 'technique' Instagram right into thinking you're accessing the site using an iPhone, which does enable picture uploads.
How? First off, open Safari as well as head to Preferences > Advanced and ensure Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar is toggled on. From there, head to the Instagram web site as well as visit to your account. Then pick Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone.
