To start, I opened Instagram on my smartphone and also here's just what I saw:


It's a bit complicated, yet the switch under that's highlighted in blue? That's not the existing sight you have, although that's definitely a common user interface convention. You get on the primary feed which is accessed by the home button on the reduced left. Odd, I understand.

Faucet on the camera symbol on the bottom-- facility!-- with the blue highlight. Now your camera will certainly turn on and you'll see a preview of the image you will take:


To take a photo, faucet on the blue switch. Making a (brief) video, tap on the video camera icon to the right of the button. Tap on the left switch and also you could access your existing photos on the phone (exactly what I typically use, using the regular phone camera app for taking the picture).
