Instagram Share Kit for Android & iOS screenshot 1
About this asset
Share your players' best moments to Instagram, to the feed and to Stories, on Android and iOS, in one line of C#.
Instagram Share Kit opens Instagram with your image or video ready to post: to the feed (or Reels and messages, the player picks), or as a Story with an optional sticker on top or a gradient behind it. There is no Instagram SDK to install and no login: set your Facebook App ID once and pass a file path.
Setup is zero. On Android the plugin brings its own FileProvider, the Instagram manifest query and its androidx dependency, so you edit no manifest, no Gradle template and need no dependency resolver. On iOS a build step adds the Instagram URL schemes and the Photos text to Info.plist for you.
SHARING
• Feed: image or video, through Instagram's share screen (feed, Reels or messages)
• Stories: image or video background
• Stories: a sticker on a two-colour gradient, or an image with a sticker on top
• Check whether Instagram is installed
• Optional attribution link on Android, for apps Meta has approved
PLATFORMS
• Android: Instagram's Story and share intents through the plugin's own FileProvider; works with files in persistentDataPath and temporaryCachePath, no storage permission
• iOS: Stories through Instagram's official pasteboard sharing; feed posts through the iOS share sheet (iOS has no official direct feed route)
• Editor and other platforms: every call is a safe no-op
ZERO SETUP
• No Instagram SDK, no login
• No AndroidManifest edits: the FileProvider and the Instagram query merge in from the plugin
• No Gradle templates or External Dependency Manager: androidx.core comes from the plugin's own build.gradle
• ProGuard keep rules included for minified builds
• Its own FileProvider class, so it never clashes with other plugins
DEMO
• Every share call on one screen, with a sample image, sticker and video and a live story preview
• Portrait and landscape
• Shows how to copy media out of StreamingAssets on both platforms
FOR PROGRAMMERS
• One static C# class, InstagramShareHelper
• Full source: C#, Java and Objective-C, short and commented
• Documentation with the full API, a screenshot-sharing example, media specs and troubleshooting
REQUIREMENTS
• Unity 6 (6000.0) or newer, with Android and/or iOS build support
• The Instagram app on the player's device
• A Facebook App ID for Stories (free, from developers.facebook.com)
Note: the kit shares files you already have. It does not take screenshots or record gameplay video itself.
