Instagram is reportedly working on allowing users to create
posts using its desktop website. The upcoming feature for the social media
platform was spotted by a notable tipster on Twitter. According to the tipster,
the feature is being tested internally and it will take a long while before it
reaches the general audience. The tipster has provided some mockups of how the
website will allow users to create and edit posts on the social media website.
Currently, posting content on Instagram is exclusive to its mobile apps.
According to the rumors, the Facebook owned photo sharing social media platform
will allow users to drag drop multiple images or videos to create a post. Users
may also be able to select the aspect ratio of the post from four options —
Original, Square (1:1), Portrait (4:5), and Landscape (16:9). However, the
screenshot shared by Paluzzi shows that the Original aspect ratio was currently
unavailable. Another screenshot shared by Paluzzi shows that users will be able
to select filters and edit the photos in the similar manner that they are
subjected to on the Android and iOS apps. The last screenshot shows how users
can add captions, tag people or places, add alt text, and define advanced
settings before posting photos or videos on Instagram. As per reports, just
like a button on your mobile screens, a plus button will be provided on the
navigation bar of your desktop's screen. People will be enabled to select pics
from their PCs and crop and edit the photos before uploading them. That's not
all, users will even be able to make use of filtres and location adding option
through desktop.
