View, download, and export

I use dropbox to move pictures from my mac to my iphone, and then export them to instagram. Recently, however, when I go to export from my phone, I get a message that dropbox is linking the file and then it posts directly on instagram, instead of letting instagram open the picture. It doesn't let me crop or edit in instagram. Any ideas what to do?
But until recently had no problem, this has only happened about 2 weeks ago..........
Tried this, but still not working, unable to upload still happening
I'm having the same problem,
Cannot uninstall instagram to check it as a sulotion, cause it appear as system app.
I have been having the exact same issue for the past couple of weeks. Exporting to Instagram has been working for years, and about two or three weeks ago I have been getting the "Unable to load image message.
Same problem here with Android 8.1.0 on ASUS Zenfone.
It's been working for years, but since 2 weeks ago it doesn't work anymore.
Both methods keep failing: 1) exporting a picture from Dropbox to Instagram feed; 2) creating a new post on Instagram and selecting a picture from my Dropbox folders.
I already tried to uninstall and re-install both Dropbox and Instagram (also wiping their data and cache), but the problem is still there.
The only workaround is to save the pictures on the device and then upload them to Instagram, but it's not practical and it's a huge waste of time.
I hope this will be fixed soon.
My export to Instagram is working now. Samsung s9 running Android 10.
It works again! Thanks everybody for your participation. Happy posting!
