Flume for Instagram is a third party app developed for posting photos or videos to Instagram through a user's Mac computer.
Although users are able to browse Instagram on their desktop, the website does not allow content to be posted through the desktop interface. Users must be on their phone to share any content, whether it's an image, altered photo, gif, or video. For creators, this can be frustrating since often porting creations to their devices can reduce the quality of the original image.
Flume solves this intractable issue. Flume, unaffiliated with Instagram, allows users to do everything they can do with Instagram on their phone on their desktop Mac instead. Users can post new content, repost, browse, search, comment, and more. For any creator who relies on Instagram for their income, Flume is a natural extension which makes the work flow more productive.
Once a user logs into Flume for the first time, they'll find that the initial interface is composed of two pieces: the feed and the control panel. Through the control panel, users can choose functions that they need on their desktop. It's simple to post new content through their Mac. Flume supports simple editing to media files and is not limited to just immediate posting. On the other hand, the feed contains the Instagram content which has already been posted and matches the look and feel of the phone app.
Any user familiar with the phone version of Instagram will find Flume very easy to pick up, as the app mirrors the formatting found on the phone based social media network. Flume also extends the usability of Instagram by allowing users to easily repost content. By adding a simple "Repost" button, users can re-upload content with no extra hassle.
Users can also instant message through the Flume interface. At only 9.99 a month, Flume is a good choice for any young professional looking to make an online presence on Instagram. Flume solves the work flow issues caused by Instagram's lack of support for desktop applications.
