In this tutorial, we will show you how easy it is to get started with one of the best third-party Instagram reposting apps available. We’ll be using Repost for Instagram because it’s extremely popular and it has great ratings. It’s also available for free for Android devices. Click through the next few slides to see example screenshots for how it’s done. What’s great about this Repost app is that there’s so much you can do with it. As soon as you’ve signed in using your Instagram account, you’ll be brought to your home tab, where you can start looking around for content to repost. Here’s a quick breakdown of what you’ll find. Feed: The most recently shared photos from users you follow. Media: The most recently shared videos from users you follow. Likes: Posts you recently liked (by hitting the heart button). Favorites: When you’re browsing posts through the Repost app, you can hit the three dots in the top right corner of a post and tap “Add To Favorites” to save them under this tab. The main menu found at the very bottom of the screen has three general tabs you can browse through: your own profile (or home tab), what’s currently popular on Instagram, and a search tab. Although you can browse through posts using the Repost app just as you would on Instagram, you can’t comment on any of them. You can, however, tap the heart button to like posts directly through the Repost app. From there, you can tap the blue “Repost” button in the right corner beneath the post if you’d like to post it to your own profile. Doing this will give you some editing options, such as changing the orientation of the post. Once you like how it looks, tap the big blue “Repost” button at the bottom. Tap the Instagram icon. You’ll be shifted over to the Instagram app, and the post will be there for you already, all set for you to apply filters to it and edit it however you like. You can even tap “Tag People” to tag the original user as a nice gesture to give even more of a credit perk to them. It will show a small image credit in the bottom left corner of the post, displaying the original user’s icon and username. And that’s all there is to it. Instagram is not expected to introduce an in-app repost feature of its own anytime soon, so for now, this is your next best option. You can repost anything in just a few seconds—including videos. You can even repost someone’s Instagram story if it makes sense for your own audience.
