How can instagram access my photos

Then, reopen Instagram and go to the Favourites album and it should appear … might take a few moments to download. You can access your Deleted Instagram photos first of all you need to check your iphone photo album or your android gallery.

For iphone users when they take a photo it will be automatically saved to camera roll. This is normally for perfectly sensible reasons: a photo-editing app needs access to your photos, or a voice recorder needs access to the microphone. Sometimes an app may want access to more personal information because it is trying to gather data that could then be used for marketing. You will either be prompted to allow Photos access or be taken to the setting where you can set Photos to Read and write.

So how did I do? Please I would love your feedback and input. Especially if you have something to add to this article. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Take a moment to leave a comment. Cancel reply.

Thank you, thank you! Thankyou so so soo much!!! Someone help me. Madi, after you reset location and privacy, try powering your phone down and then back on again. This extra step seems to be helping others. Tell me what happens! And at that point you can feel free to delete this comment. Thanks for writing in Josh! I should have noted that turning my device off and on was the first thing I tried, and more than once at that.

No luck. The aim of this blog is to simply share tech tips, insights, and fixes that work for me. If you know of any specific side effects that we might want to avoid, please share them here. Thanks again for helping me think this through. Hey there, ever since updating to iOS 11, I cannot upload a photo via any app. Did you try turning your phone off and then on again?

This is under General settings. It sounds like you were looking in Privacy and specific apps. Until today. Now everything works fine. Go figure. Always good to have a backup before making changes just in case.

I have the same problem, cant allow any of my apps to use camera,photos,microphone etc. I havent been able to use any social media for three days now and i need some help real quick. What iOS are you on… is it up to date?

Just compose an email from your gmail app and try to attach a pic. It will ask to allow access to your photos. Allow access. Send that email and then restart your gmail. Now you should be allowed to save gmail attached emails into your iPhone photos. I tried everything too. Nothing worked. All other Apps are working fine.

I tried resetting location and privacy, restarting, reinstalling, resetting my phone, restoring my phone, nothing worked.

Hi Ahmad, I am sorry this is happening to you! I found someone else with this problem, who offered a solution. Let us know how it works out! Facebook only sees certain albums on my iPhone. Will not see any of the My Albums that I custom create. Okay so I am new to Apple. I have the 8 plus. It worked for me…. I finally just powered the device off and back on again after doing the reset and it worked! Thanks for the tip!

Tried all of this. No restrictions on, came on suddenly that everything in privacy cannot be given access to, tried resetting privacy and location.

Tried turning phone on and off. Tried everything on off, restrictions, privacy, nothing appears in my photos to gain access nor via Facebook. Sorry Julie! Worked like a charm. Had similar problem of Goodnotes not being able to access photo.

Tried all the above sauggestion. The solution that worked for me involves 2 stesps: 1. Disable restriction 2. Reset privacy n location.

Hope info is useful to others who face similar problem. I was never big into stories until the highlights came out. Thank you thank you!!! After disabling restrictions and resetting privacy and shutting down my phone I have photo access for the first time!! I am unable to take pictures from my Instagram account but when I made anther account I can.. Instead of trying to do it from Whatsapp I went to my Pictures and hit the share button.

Then the icons came up to choose from. I chose WhatsApp and it opened it and allowed me to share. This just happened to my instagram. Same issue as a lot of comments above. The camera doesnt show up as an option after clicking the plus sign. It can access my photos. I followed steps outlined above including resetting restrictions and powering off and on as well as deleting the app and reinstalling it.

I have an iphone XR ios 12… and just changed from a 6s. On the 6s, KIK can access my photos. Never, add photos only OR Read and Write. My Xr only gives the option to never give access or add photos only. Can you help.
