You can read more about Flume for Instagram on the Flume website. For technical reasons it can only use the same ones as used in Photo Booth. The slight drawback is that the filters aren’t the same as in Instagram. Uploading photos is as simple as dragging and dropping them into the Flume interface. You can search for users via hashtag or location and it’s even integrated with the Touch Bar MacBook Pros. You can do many things in Flume that you can in Instagram for iOS and Android including like, comment and share photos. The Pro version also allows you to add multiple accounts. However, it’s definitely well worth it and there’s no other app like Flume that comes close to giving you full Instagram functionality on Mac.

However, it should be noted that you can only upload photos in the Pro version of Flume which you can upgrade to in-app for $10. Flume is the closest thing to having Instagram for Mac on your desktop and easily the best Instagram app for Mac we’ve tried.įlume is the only app that genuinely allows you to upload photos and videos from your Mac to Instagram.
