Websta for Instagram is Windows application that allows users to fully interact with Instagram on their computer.

For many, Instagram is very frustrating to use in a laptop computer environment. Although it's possible to browse, like, and comment on posts, users are unable to access many important functions outside of the mobile environment.

Websta is a lightweight utility that gives users full access to all barred functionality in any environment, whether it's on a tablet or computer running Windows 7.

More specifically, users are able to upload, download, and post Instagram stories. Websta enables users to send direct messages through their desktop. Most importantly, users are able to upload, edit, and post pictures to their account through the Websta application.

Through fully integrated browser support, users don't have to open Instagram in an external app. Many prefer to use Instagram in their browser environment because it's easier to edit photos on their laptop and then post them directly.

Moreover, the application gives users moment-by-moment updates any time they receive a direct message or a story is updated. The app doesn't reduce the quality of any content interacted with or uploaded through the browser.

Ultimately, Websta is tailor-made for profressional photographers, creators, and influencers that are seeking to improve their Instagram workflow. If your income relies on creating posts, it's much easier to perfect the post to your liking in a desktop environment than on your phone.

Of course, there are some drawbacks to the free Websta application in contrast with paid applications. Some users complain of buggy updates, the inability to respond to direct messages. Depending on your browser updates, it may not be possible to crop a post before submitting it. It's recommended that you always keep your favorite browser up to date before using the Websta app.
