I have published many guides on uploading to Instagram from the computer. sometimes we recommend Gramblr and sometimes InstaPic. But guess what, you don’t need any app now. 

Instagram, released full function mobile web sharing to gain more users, which basically means, now you can open Instagram from your mobile browser and also upload pictures from it. Yes, previously, it was not possible.

Why Upload Photos To Instagram From Computer?

Maybe you don’t have a smartphone. But for most of us, it’s the inconvenience of transferring the photos from the DSLR to smartphone. Many advanced users take photos from DSLR, which they have to edit them on the computer. And then, sent them on to smartphone using email or something.

But thankfully, now you can upload pictures to Instagram from the computer (PC/MacOS/Linux or anything) without using any third party software. All you have to do is an emulate mobile browser on the desktop. And it’s quite simple to do. Watch this quick video or scroll down for the complete tutorial.
