Constantly the range of possibilities opens up in the world of Social Media, including the ability to upload photos an videos (also IGTV) to Instagram from a computer, PC, Mac or laptop, in this case without using any programs or external applications. You just need to know some tricks or alternatives that I offer you in the following article. (I will update this post as changes that modify these options come out).

Instagram update 2017 – 2019

In April 2017, Instagram updated its mobile version. Since then, you have been able to upload your photos from the browser of your mobile or cell phone, without using the application. The web interface is very similar to the app. This suggests that Instagram wants to «capture» more users worldwide, and is achieving it since it has millions of ‘ig-ers’.

This function is very useful for those who do not have the application installed on their mobile phone, or if you want to save your data or megabytes when using the app.

The only slight inconvenience currently is that you cannot upload videos to Instagram in its mobile web version. Taking the above into account, we are now going to upload photos to Instagram from the web with the new option launched in 2019.
