Instagram update

[patruns]

Wasn't really sure where to post this. Has anyone noticed the last update has a bug where you can't post photos in your gallery? I confirmed it was the update. Tried it on my wife's Pixel 6 and it worked fine. As soon as I applied the update it stopped working. Just crickets on any Instagram social network pages......

Just updated my app on my Note 20U and it's still working correctly to upload photos from my gallery, perhaps it's a bug that only impacts the Pixel 6 or Android 13?

After the update on my Pixel 5, it looks like I can upload photos from my gallery, as well. Hopefully this glitch goes away for you! Is your Instagram app updated to the latest software?

My wife had a similar problem last week with Facebook and I was able to fix it on her P6P. Hope this helps.

Go to settings/search camera/scroll down and select camera app info/

Select permissions and make sure Photos and Videos are allowed

Ironically, I'm having a similar issue with my Facebook business account -- but my personal, normal account posts fine. Blah! Social media these days!

I haven't changed any permissions. There have been several Instagram updates but they appear to address a bug that had the app crashing. It did not fix my issue. Instagram is completely useless at the moment.

That's awful! Have you reached out to Instagram or reported the issue?

I posted to their Facebook pages and the comment have not been approved. When is kept crashing I had the opportunity to provide feedback, but I am not sure where that feedback went. Instagram doesn't really make it easy to contact them.

Sounds like you're doing the right thing! Keep us posted on what happens!

I went to ***** to them on Twitter and then I decided to share that Tweet with Instagram and it worked and must have done something as I now can post pictures. I have no idea why. There was no app update and it did not work just before I opened Twitter.
