I have been missing instagram competitions out because I can't work it out.. I just can't see an option to share. I use instagram but have only posted pics up. Thanks in advance

On my iPad I have to take a screenshot then post that, but I'm never sure if I'm doing it right.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Competition Time, Site Feedback and Marriage, Relationships and Families boards.

Glad I'm not the only one - I just know how to follow on instagram, like and comment and tag. Haven't a clue how to share though!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0

I HATE the word regram... because it's not a thing.
It's like they've went 'twitter has retweet, facebook has share, regram has to work doesn't it?' No - it's not a thing. There's no button. It's pointless. Screenshot the photo and post with a hashtag, is pointless. Half the time, it won't generate any clicks as people don't even know where the photo came from.
Sorry, anti-Insta rant.
For those that can't screenshot on a laptop - Go to your start menu on your windows (Windows 10, 8, 7) and type 'snipping'. Open up the snipping tool and use that (hit new, and the screen goes white, click and drag a box for what you want to grab 'snip'). Save as an image then use how you need.
Much better than screenshotting.0 -
I don't think I will bother... unless it's something I am desperate for lolThanks to everyone that posts :T:money:

This is a common problem, I posted about it a little while ago to try and help those out - I also include the information on my posts when I post an Instagram competition that needs a regram. It is super easy.
