How to Upload Up to 10 Photos and Videos to Instagram in One Post. (Android & iOS)
It's been a long time coming, way too long! Finally, Instagram now allows any user to post more than one photo or video at a time, up to 10 in fact. Prior to this, having the ability to publish more than one photo or video was limited to companies that used the platform for advertising purposes. Surprisingly for once this idea is actually original and hasn’t been 'borrowed' from any of the other social media platforms.. 'Cough' 'Cough' 'Snapchat…..'
