    Ok, I was being a but dumb beforehand -

    For anyone wanting to update Instagram from a desktop, but not wanting to install the app, you can do the following:

    • Use Chrome (sorry)
    • Dev Tools (PC: ctrl + shift + i)
    • Device Mode (PC: ctrl + shift + M)

    Changing to a mobile/tablet style will give you access to Instagram's mobikle interface, replete with poorly-described icons and lumpen interface).

    There's probably a better/starter way to do this, and I'm going to try and meddle with hte user agent or somethign in Firefox and see if I can do that. I try and avoid using Chrome, where possible.

    • I haven't used firefox for a good while but their dev tools used to be great.fadein11
    • I didn't leave Firefox out of choice either, Chrome was way leaner back then, but not now of course.fadein11
    • Safari, enable develop tool. Then simply 'Enter Responsive Design Mode', choose iPhone.shapesalad
