TIP: How to import photos and videos from PC to Instagram
Hundreds of millions of users use Instagram to share their selfies and other photos with their friends and followers instantly. But what about when you want to share older photos stored in your computer?
You can of course transfer your photos to your phone and upload it from there, but that's really awkward way to share photos on Instagram.
Another option would be to use the official app for Windows which is available on Windows Store, unfortunately it sucks. Well, it's good if you want to share photos done with your web camera, but that's about it. It does not allow you to just select photo on your hard drive and upload it on Instagram.
So, what to do when you want to quickly upload photos and videos from your PC to Instagram? The answer is simple, install Gramblr!
What is Gramblr?
Gramblr is a desktop application that allows you to upload pictures or videos on Instagram. It is available for both Windows (XP to 10) and Mac users and it's completely free.
