When you upload a new post or repost using Virol, you can see a pop up of post editor. Here’s the explanation of its parts.

Accounts

In the top left corner you can choose an account you want to use to post.

You can upload a content to your Instagram account in Virol even though in the browser there’s another active account. The active account is in blue color.

Original Caption

When you repost a content, you can use the original caption right from the post by clicking +original caption button.

Related Hashtag

If you need to get hashtags ideas for your content, type one hashtag in the caption, and click+related hashtags button.

Important notes:

  • The way this feature works is by searching relevant hashtags with the last hashtag you types in the caption.
  • Related hashtag button only appear if there’s at least one hashtag in your caption. If the button does not appear, type one hashtag to make it appear.
  • When reposting, if there’s hashtag in the original caption, related hashtag button will be appeared even though you don’t type any hashtag on your own

Credit Mention

Virol makes it possible for you to mention the original poster of the picture that you repost. Click on +credit button to mention the original poster automatically.

Auto Complete

If you want to add hashtag or mention someone, you don’t have to type full username. Simply choose the right ones from the appearing suggestions.

Add Location / Check-In

You can check in at the current location of the picture you took.

Emoji / Emoticon

You can add emoji in Virol in 2 ways:

  • By clicking on emoji button, then choose the emoji you want from the available list.
  • By using auto complete emoji. Type two dots (:) and followed by the emoji’s name. For example, :fire

Crop, Zoom, and Rotate

You can also adjust your pictures with basic editing tools like square crop, zoom, and rotate.

Watermark

You can also add watermark and style it to match with your content:

  • If you upload your own content, the written watermark is your Instagram username.
  • But, when you repost other people content, the written watermark is the username of the original poster.
