How To Post A Photo To Instagram


To begin, I opened up Instagram on my mobile phone and also right here's exactly what I saw:


It's a little bit complicated, however the button on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the existing sight you have, although that's certainly a typical interface convention. You get on the main feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Odd, I understand.

Tap on the camera icon under-- facility!-- with the blue emphasize. Currently your camera will trigger and also you'll see a sneak peek of the photo you're about to take:


To take a picture, tap on the blue button. To make a (brief) video, tap on the video camera symbol to the right of the switch.

Successive, I'll modify the Contrast since I locate that on my apple iphone, a minimum of, it's constantly simply a little bit below I like:


Once more, utilize your finger to adjust it with the slider, as well as faucet on the check mark to devote the adjustment or the "X" to discard it if you change your mind.

However, if that appears frustrating, don't worry about it and just add an interesting and/or witty message.
