Instagram App Issue - Processing

Obsydian — Fri, 28 Feb 2025 14:59:39 GMT

All of a sudden I get this processing wheel that never ends or saves a draft and I have to close the app, searched Google, Reddit but got what I already tried uninstall, check blah, blah, blah but the same, seems to be an ongoing bug as my posts go back a few years but current as well.

Anyone else affected or just me 😢

I have narrowed it down to any edits after uploading video or pictures.

Hi! I believe there are some outages. No personal experiences.

Tried everything same issue, very odd, going to revert back to Samsung Studio for all editing, etc.. as that seems to work ...

I’ve seen similar Instagram issues where the app gets stuck on the processing screen after adding or editing media. Since you’ve already tried reinstalling it, I’d also check whether the issue happens with both Wi-Fi and mobile data, and try uploading a shorter video or a different image. If it only happens after editing uploaded media, that’s a useful clue that it may be an app-side bug rather than a phone issue.
