How to Repost on Instagram

We all love Instagram! It is easy to use and gives us awesome images and videos that we sometimes want to share with our followers. And that’s the downside: they do not make it easy to regram.  If you want to repost someone’s else content it is going to take some effort.

Please note: According to Instagram’s Terms of Use you need to obtain permission from the relevant Instagram user before you may repost their content.

So, here are a few ways to repost on Instagram.

Use a Reposting App

Just as there is a solution to every problem so is there an app for everything!

1.  Download Repost for Instagram from your App or Play Store.

2.  Open your Instagram account and find the post you want to regram. Click on the three dots at the top right-hand side and select Copy Link.

3.  Open the Repost for Instagram app and you will find the post you have just copied on the app’s homepage. Tap on the post.

This is where you can edit where you would like the repost icon to appear on Instagram. Once you’re done, hit Repost.

4.  On the following screen, select Copy to Instagram. You will then be directed to Instagramwhere you can add a filter or edit the image. If you would like to add the original copy, then tap on the caption field and click Paste. Alternatively, you can write your own copy. Finally, Share the post.

Use DownloadGram

DownloadGram is super easy to use and totally free. It is an online downloading tool, so no app is required.
