You can not directly post an image on Instagram. You have to redirect your image with UIDocumentInteractionController. Use Below code , Hope It will help

CGRect rect = CGRectMake(0 ,0 , 0, 0);

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(self.view.bounds.size, self.view.opaque, 0.0);

[self.view.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];

UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

NSString  *jpgPath = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Documents/test.igo"];

NSURL *igImageHookFile = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"file://%@", jpgPath]];

self.dic.UTI = @"com.instagram.photo";

self.dic = [self setupControllerWithURL:igImageHookFile usingDelegate:self];

self.dic=[UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:igImageHookFile];

[self.dic presentOpenInMenuFromRect: rect    inView: self.view animated: YES ];


-(UIDocumentInteractionController *) setupControllerWithURL: (NSURL*) fileURL usingDelegate: (id ) interactionDelegate {

     UIDocumentInteractionController *interactionController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL: fileURL];
     interactionController.delegate = interactionDelegate;
     return interactionController;
}
