Instagram have finally updated their desktop site to allow photo and video uploads right from the browser.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While Instagram has allowed browsing the feed and uploading to IGTV from desktop for some time now, Instagram restricted image and short video uploads to only the smartphone app or a mobile browser. This required anyone looking to upload from a computer to transfer images and videos between devices or download third-party tools, especially annoying for brands who prefer keeping work to desktops. Now the long requested feature comes to all users via the desktop site. Instagram’s head Adam Mosseri admits the feature is one they “should have gotten to a long time ago”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
