    By 'desktop' do you mean in a browser?

    By App being fine, do you mean on phone?

    Do you use a Windows PC and which version of Windows?

    The reason I ask is that, most people are unaware, there is an app store in Windows. You can download an Instagram App on your PC (Windows 8 or 10) which is far better than doing it in a browser (full functionality like uploading photos etc).
