Es por esto que hemos creído conveniente publicar este post donde explicaremos how to upload your photos to Instagram untrimmed.

Even though the application itself and especially the Instagram filters have revolutionized the world of smartphone photography, it does not make much sense that the application forces you to discard part of the photo to be able to edit it and finally upload it, even more so for your own sake. camera limitations, you have no choice but to take the photo landscape so that the image fits the lens.

2. InstaFitIt (for Android devices)
