Hi everyone,
Bit of a strange bug I’ve noticed for a while now and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced it, or has any workarounds?
When uploading photos to Instagram to post, it’s possible to get to the caption page with no issues. However, I’ve noticed when trying to add alt text in Advanced Settings, when double tapping on ‘Done’ or the ‘Back’ button, I’m pretty much always just taken back to the photo upload page. This happens almost all the time and makes posting really difficult.
If anyone has any solutions or if I’m just missing something, please let me know. It happens when pressing ‘Done’ and just leaving it, as well as if I press ‘Ddone’ and then tap anywhere on the screen.
Thanks!

Yep, its a bug, can confirm…

My process to work around this is
1 Choose photos.
2 Create caption with all the hashtags and mentions I want to include.
3 Copy the caption to another app, I use drafts, but any text field such as the notes app would work.
4 Back in Instagram, add alt text. Copy the alt text to notes as well.
5 Hit done.
6 Choose photos again
7 Go to notes and paste the previously made caption
8 Do the same with alt text.
9 Post.
Incredibly stupid, but its the best I could think of.
