CONNECTING INSTAGRAM
Instagram is created as a strictly "mobile" social media application. Because of this, you will be required to get additional approval from an admin within the Instagram mobile account when connecting.

INSTAGRAM VS INSTAGRAM DIRECT
Due to the nature of Instagram's functionality, the social media will want you to "approve" any scheduled posts directly from the Instagram app at when posts are submitted. To get around this hurdle, we offer "Instagram Direct" which will allow you to post DIRECTLY to Instagram and bypass the mobile app all together.
