You can do this using one of the tools called Inspect Element. This application appears as a window on your computer. Once you open the tool, you will notice an icon that looks like a tab or a phone screen. Clicking on this icon will switch your computer&#8217;s website view to the mobile version of the site. To post to Instagram from Chrome, just click the icon in the top right corner of the screen and follow the on-screen instructions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_video\"><\/span>YouTube video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How to post to Instagram from YouTube video? This simple tool lets you import video from YouTube directly to your Instagram account. The video must have the correct file format and have the right codec to be compatible with the Instagram platform. If your video is longer than the limit, you can trim it to fit. If your video is shorter than the limit, you can download it to your computer. Once you&#8217;ve exported the video, you&#8217;ll need to rename its file extension to match Instagram&#8217;s guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve converted your video to an Instagram-friendly format, you can share it with your followers in minutes. If you have over 10k followers on Instagram, you can use the swipe-up feature to share your video with your audience. If you don&#8217;t have 10K followers, you can simply embed the YouTube URL in your story. To use the swipe-up feature, make sure you have at least ten thousand followers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Google_Chrome\"><\/span>Google Chrome<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Do you want to post images to Instagram? No matter what operating system you use, you can easily do this from your computer. Instagram supports every browser and operating system. Using this Chrome trick, you can post to Instagram and edit your pictures on the desktop, instead of transferring them to your phone or using the mobile app. You can post as many photos as you want and have all of them appear on your feed at once.<\/p>\n<p>First, you&#8217;ll need to download Google Chrome and then log into your Instagram account. Next, open Chrome Developer Tools (Ctrl+Shift+J on Windows or Cmd+Option+J on Mac). Select the Mobile view option. After you&#8217;ve done that, click the X in the top right corner of your browser. Your post should appear on the mobile version of Instagram. If you&#8217;re having trouble, you can try another browser instead.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Safari\"><\/span>Safari<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To post photos to Instagram from your Mac, you must first turn on the &#8216;Develop&#8217; menu. Click on &#8220;Show Develop&#8221; in the menu bar and follow the steps provided. To post photos to Instagram from Chrome, you can follow the same steps, except that you&#8217;ll have to change the user agent. To post photos to Instagram from Safari on your Mac, you&#8217;ll need to spoof the User Agent. This is done through Safari&#8217;s &#8220;Develop&#8221; menu.<\/p>\n<p>You can also enable the &#8220;Developer&#8221; menu in Safari. This will let you access the Instagram developer tools. From here, you can select a file from your Mac and upload it to your account. If you&#8217;re having trouble with the upload process, you can also try the keyboard input option. The keyboard input will be easier for you compared to the Instagram app. Once you&#8217;re done, click the &#8220;Post&#8221; button on the top-left corner of your screen and wait for it to finish.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PC\"><\/span>PC<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to post to Instagram on a PC, you can post directly from your browser. However, this trick won&#8217;t work for posts of photos or videos. Instead, you will need to change the &#8220;user agent&#8221; of your browser, which tells the website which kind of device you are using. In this case, you can use Chrome to trick Instagram into thinking you&#8217;re using a mobile device. Follow the instructions below to figure out how to post to Instagram on your PC.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve installed Inssist, you can post to Instagram. It automatically suggests 30 relevant hashtags for you to use in your captions. You can also search for specific hashtags and create a collection. Inssist also supports Dark Mode and Wide Screen. And because it&#8217;s built for Chrome, it won&#8217;t crash your computer. Hopefully, this guide will help you post to Instagram on your PC.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mac\"><\/span>Mac<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To upload pictures and videos to Instagram from your computer, you must first install the Google Chrome browser. Once installed, log into your Instagram account. Then, open the Chrome Developer Tools by pressing Ctrl+Shift+J on Windows or Cmd+Option+J on Mac. From the menu, choose &#8216;View as&#8217; and select &#8216;Mobile&#8217;. Now, you can post photos and videos to Instagram using your PC browser.<\/p>\n<p>To post a video to your Instagram account, you need to upload it as an MP4 file. Make sure the file size is 650MB or less. For videos of up to 60 minutes, the file size should be 3.6 GB. You can also adjust the size and orientation of your video by clicking on the &#8220;zoom&#8221; icon and choosing the desired position. In addition to this, you can zoom in and out to make the video or photo look perfect.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"390\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P1R-9TrjmQk\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"218\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Post to Instagram From Chrome?
