On a side note, IG works perfectly fine being denied the Camera permission. In fact, it doesn't even complain about it until you try to take a picture in-app... and most users' workflow is taking pics with their phone's camera app (which is almost always better than IG's) and uploading the actual files to IG (you can still apply filters and everything else this way).

It doesn't need access to your photo library either. Imagine giving access to your whole roll!
If you want to post, it needs access to your photo library or the camera. If you want to post stories, it needs access to the camera and microphone.
nah you pick a photo and select "share" then select insta
