Instagram, the social network for photography and video owned by Facebook, is working on a function to publish content directly from the web version , according to developer Alessandro Paluzzi.
The update of the version for Instagram desktop browsers would allow users to access all the publishing options that are currently only available on mobile phones .
As can be seen in the images shared by Paluzzi on Twitter, the new interface allows you to see a preview of the content and the possibility of cropping the image, applying filters or adding a description .
Some people may be wondering how the developer got access to the new Instagram posting interface. Unfortunately he has not revealed what his technique was and if others can try it .
So far little is known about this feature, but Paluzzi's finding is an indication that Instagram could roll out it at some point for all users. However, there are no official mentions about it.
Over time, Instagram has been transforming. Little remains of that social network whose main attraction was the Polaroid filters . Now it is an application that includes a large number of features.
These range from Live Videos to Reels, Stories, IGTV, Instagram Shopping, Direct Messages, and more. Due to all this – and also to its great commercial use – it is that the improvements of the web version are necessary.
Instagram and its absence on the iPad

Many iPad users use the browser to access the web version of Instagram to take advantage of its screen size. However, are limited to publish content .
That is, they can “Like” and comment, but not much beyond that. An update to the web version would be good news for iPad users who do not have an optimized app.
Facebook also has no plans to launch an app for Apple's tablet. According to Instagram boss Adam Mosseri, the company has limited resources and a lot of work to do.
“ We would like to create an application for iPad, but we have a limited number of people and a lot to do, and it has not yet become the best option to do,” says Mosseri, according to 9To5Mac. .
