Hi. I am trying to share a photo from Lightroom to Instagram on iPhone 11Pro with iOS14. It doesn't work... I get this weird generic screen (attached) and the share button doesn't do anyting when I tap it. I can share fine to Facebook. Also can save the photo to my camera roll then post fine to IG from there. Tried deactivating both accounts and reinsatlling to no avail. Really frustrating. Any thoughts?

Long press on the Instagram icon and you can "copy to Instagram" as before.

"copy to Instagram" implies that is the choice after long pressing on Instagram icon. My choices are "share with app" (which gives me the same screen indicated in the original post) and "open in app" which only allows posting the image as in a square aspect, which is not acceptable. It works, but with compromise.

Interesting... I always crop to square in LR before posting to IG so I didn't notice this problem.

Before upgrades to LR and iOS, images posted directly from LR to Instagram matched the aspect of the image. This still applies when sharing from Photos app on iPhone. Using Instagram to post does force square aspect.

Thanks! That worked. So nonintuitive. Adobe you need to fix this ASAP.
