  4. Double click to enter the program.
  5. Create an account to link to your Instagram page (it will only ask you to do this once).

Once you have completed your Gramblr login and linked your Gramblr to Instagram account, you can start publishing videos onto your Instagram from PC. But How do you upload photos and videos onto Gramblr?

How to post on Instagram from desktop: Ramme (accepts Linux)

Another good tool you can use to upload videos to Instagram from your PC is Ramme. This tool functions for all computers that use a Linux operating system, although there are other versions made for Windows and MAC OS X.

Ramme, in addition to allowing the publication of videos and images, also includes additional functions. Ramme functions include, searching for contacts, topics or profiles on Instagram, allowing you to also view your own profile. Although this software tool is more limited than Gramblr, it also allows you to edit photos and videos before posting them to Instagram.

Because Ramme is an external tool, you need to install Ramme onto your computer by choosing the correct version according to your own PC operating system. Once installed:

  1. Run the application from the applications menu.
  2. Register with your Instagram username and password (or Facebook data).

Once you have completed Ramme registration, the application will allow you to use your Instagram account normally, as if you were on Instagram from your mobile.
