How to Repost on Instagram from Android and iOS

Mannatjot Singh • Updated June 15, 2021 • 6 min read •

In the previous article, we showed you the best repost apps for Instagram that you can download on your Android and iOS device. It consisted of apps that help you share and repost photos and videos on Instagram from different users. Now, we are going to explain how you can repost others’ Instagram posts from Android and iOS.

Due to the immense popularity gained by Instagram over the years, it has now become a preferred platform to use by many people. In addition to that, with the recent updates to the platform, it has been improved in terms of usage and user interface. The platform has been improved with various bug fixes.

Another thing is that Instagram is testing a method that hides the number of likes and views on a photo or a video. The reason for this is to hide the number of engagements visible to the public.

So now if you see some trending post or video, you could repost that post with your followers so that they can get to know about that as well. But you should first know how to do that exactly. So, in this article, we are here to show you how to repost on Instagram from your Android or iOS devices.

Warning:
Before reposting someone’s Instagram posts on your profile, get their prior permission and make sure you are allowed to share it. Also, don’t forget to add the proper credit to the original author of the post. If you fail to provide proper credits and the actual owner reports your profile for plagiarism, there are high chances of getting your Instagram account permanently banned.
