George Saval demonstrates how to add alt text to a photo on Instagram using an iPhone. He explains the step-by-step process, including opening the camera, selecting a photo, accessing advanced settings, and adding alt text. Once done, the photo can be shared on the news feed. This tutorial is specifically for iPhone users on Instagram. Welcome to Accessibility Corner with George Saval. So today I'm going to show you how to add alt text to a photo while posting on Instagram. I'm doing this on my iPhone and I have updated the app. So let's go ahead and see how this works. So first thing you want to do is go to the bottom. There's like four or five choices that have tabs. You want the one that says open camera. So I'm going to go ahead and do that now. I'm going to go ahead and tap on that with open camera. Once you tap on open camera, you're going to see where it says new post. And I'm going to swipe down to show you the different options on the screen. Okay, here we go. So for me, it automatically selected a photo for me. I guess my most recent photo, which is fine for this demo. So I'm going to go ahead and leave it alone. And I'm going to go back up to where it says next. And then we'll go from there, okay? Once you click on next, you're going to fall on this screen where it says filters. So for demonstration purposes, I'm not going to go through that. You can always just swipe to the right and see the options. But I'm going to go ahead and hit the next button. Now this is the third screen. Next, you're going to get to fall on this screen. If you notice, the very top is going to say shares. I'm going to go ahead and do that now. And that's what you want to hear. So what you're going to do, you're going to swipe all the way down to where it says advanced settings. And I'm going to click on that, okay? Once you click on advanced settings, you're going to fall on this screen. Now on this screen, you're going to swipe all the way down until you hear accessibility. And this is where the alt text comes into play. So I'm going to swipe to the right. It says write alt text. I'm going to tap on that. I'm going to swipe to the right. Now once you add the alt text to that edit field, swipe to the left, tap on done. And once you do that, swipe all the way to the top, you're going to hear the share. Tap on that, and there you go. The post is on your news feed in Instagram. Again, this is adding alt text to a photo in Instagram on your iPhone. Hope this helps, and we'll talk to you later.
