Send Text Tag to Instagram using my Android app
Finally, Instagram API supports text coming from Android apps using Intent.
Here is the intent code to share images and text on Instagram.
Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("image/*");
shareIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,uri);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,"YOUR TEXT TO SHARE IN INSTAGRAM");
shareIntent.setPackage("com.instagram.android");
return shareIntent;
Here is the documentation
It's not possible, since for now instagramm accepts only Intent.EXTRA_STREAM unfortunately. You can check same question here Open Instagram app from another android app and send an Image with a Caption
