How to post videos to IGTV via mobile

Instagram's IGTV platform allows you to publish videos that are longer than the usual 60 seconds of the social network. They can take anywhere from 15 seconds to ten minutes, or up to an hour for verified accounts. Thus, the new tool was created to hit YouTube head on with the publication of long videos.

Instagram TV does not have an integrated camera, so recording must be done beforehand using the native capture app on your phone. The platform accepts videos in 4: 5 to 9:16 aspect ratio, always vertical. See the following tutorial on how to publish videos on IGTV over Android or iPhone (iOS).
