Instagram is a US photo and video-sharing social networking service and Facebook is its parent company. The social media platform was created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, and it was launched 10 years ago, exclusively on Apple devices.
A decade later, Instagram is now popular for allowing users to upload pictures and clips to the service, which can be edited with several filters, and organized with tags and location info. Every post from an account can be shared publicly or with specific people that follow you.
As you already know, Instagram allows you to capture and share your adventures with your followers. However, if you do not just want to show them but also want everyone to know precisely where you captured that amazing skyline or reveal the location that gave you that tasty meal you loved, we can help.
Instagram allows you to select how specific you get about sharing your location, and if you cannot find where you are via Instagram’s auto-population feature, a location can be created by you. If you wish to create a location, it can be done through the Facebook application.
If you are not aware, locations created via Facebook can be used on Instagram. If you cannot find the fresh location you create on the photo-sharing platform, you might have to head back to Facebook on your smartphone or PC to claim it. See How To Create A New Location On Instagram:
