To start, I opened up Instagram on my mobile phone and here's what I saw:


It's a little bit confusing, yet the switch on the bottom that's highlighted in blue? That's not the existing sight you have, even though that's definitely a typical user interface convention. You're on the main feed which is accessed by the home button on the lower left. Weird, I know.

Faucet on the camera icon under-- center!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will turn on and you'll see a preview of the image you're about to take:
