How to upload pictures to Instagram from a desktop browser
A lot of web browsers have a means of allowing you transform the "User Representative"-- the thing that tells a website what type of device you're on. So, even when you're on a laptop computer or desktop computer, you could trick a website like Instagram right into showing you the mobile site. That's what we're mosting likely to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's very easy. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the really bottom that states, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Currently open a private surfing home window. Head to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, sign in as well as click the camera switch at the bottom of the display to post an image from your desktop.
Chrome
In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and log in. Now right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet icon (top-left). The page must switch over to mobile view, where you'll find a camera button at the bottom of the display, which lets you publish a picture from your desktop computer.
Many Instagrammers-- myself included-- fire photos on a dSLR video camera and edit them on their computer system prior to submitting to Instagram. That means having to move the completed photo to a phone (through AirDrop or e-mail), which is difficult, at best.
This workaround reduces that step out, making dSLR uploads less complicated compared to ever before.
