Could we see uploads to Instagram from desktop soon? This might be a step towards that direction. As Instagram becomes more and more global, being able to post from any device on the web is key to giving everyone the ability to use the platform (and post selfies!).
The new Instagram mobile website works on any mobile device or tablet, which will only expand Instagram’s reach, especially in countries where owning an iPhone is an extreme luxury. But with the new mobile web, I’m expecting more adorable Mom comments on a regular basis as she becomes a more active Instagram user. But my mom still has a Blackberry, so she is limited to using Instagram only on her iPad. So, why would you want to upload to Instagram from web on your phone instead of using the native Instagram app? If you have an iPhone or an Android, you probably don’t want to. Here's what the new Instagram mobile website looks like.Obviously, the experience is a lot better on the native Instagram app, but the mobile web view has come a long way and actually feels very similar to the native Instagram experience, especially the home feed. The first thing you'll notice is that the Instagram mobile website now more closely resembles the Instagram app: Along the bottom of the site, you'll see the familiar function bar with the following five buttons: The home button, allowing you to go to your Home feed a magnifying glass so you can search via the Instagram Explore tool a camera button to post a photo a heart to bring up your feed activity and a user icon to go to your Instagram profile page. To use Instagram's mobile website, simply open up your web browser app on your smartphone. But if you're visiting the Instagram website via your mobile web browser, the Facebook-owned company just opened up a world of mobile website functionality for its users. Now, don't get your hopes up just yet: You still can't post Instagram photos directly from your desktop computer. Since the launch of its app in 2010, Instagram has always had a very sparse web presence, designed to send visitors to its mobile app to actually share and post photos. Here's how to use Instagram's mobile website - even though you probably didn't realize you needed to in the first place.
On Tuesday, Mashable reported that Instagram's mobile website just received a massive new update.
