you won't be able to post, view stories or message anyone in the latest version. flume is currently dead. only features still has working are multilogin (paid) and feed browser
Carousel posting is broken and no sign of the developer either acknowledging the issue, or issuing a fix
Update - July 2020 It looks like Instagram are implementing changes, and Flume simply doesn't integrate them into their product. Lots of people now reporting that individual photos cannot be uploaded, as well as the existing carousel posting issue. Looks like this product is dead in the water, as the ability to order the PRO version is no longer available, and as before, zero feedback from the developer.
The latest version of Flume doesn't allow carousel posts. I've tried every thing but it still won't post. What's worse, the developer has disappeared and there's no way of contacting them in their Help and FAQs. Don't buy this app cause there's NO SUPPORT! BTW, am using Flume on the latest 2019 Macbook Air with Mojave.
After seeing the first review I felt compelled to register to this page and leave a sincere review behind.
I've been searching the internet for the last few days looking for an instagram poster for my mac desktop. I've download the Flume application on my mac first on the free version and decided to buy the premium of 10$ one off fee. I can tell you I'm absolutely flabbergasted with it's identical functionalities and use of ease. On top of that it let's you add more then 5 instagram accounts!( Max accounts to have on Instagram mobile app is 5.)
I want to thank the developer of this tool and I really hope you continue with this gem. I think a lot of mac users that are currently using it are a big fan of yours but are keeping it a bit underground to their delighted selves. For you mac users out there looking for an desktop application for your instagram management, this is the one!

absolute crap. version 2.8.6 crashes constantly. even gets an error when publishing images or videos. AND THAT IS WHAT THS WHAT THE SOFTWARE IS SUPPOSED TO DO!!! a complete piece of garbage. v2.8.5 worked at least.
the company HAS NO SUPPORT AT ALL. no even an email address to submit your requests. only recommend it to harm somebody.
