Hi dcyphers, I'd be happy to answer this one for you! 

 

Which platform do you want to use in order to achieve that? Feel free to also have a look into this Help Center article. 

 

Let me know more!

    Hey dcyphers, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that you should be able to achieve this in a couple of ways. 

     

    For starters, you can locate the photo you'd like to post on Facebook in our mobile app on your Android device and export it to Facebook from there.

     

    Otherwise, you could export it to your device and upload it to your Facebook account from there as you'd normally would with any other file on your device. 

     

    When it comes to your Windows device, you should be able to follow a similar process. Just download the file you'd like to post on Facebook from our website and upload it to Facebook via your web browser directly. 

     

    If you have the desktop app running, this file should probably be syncing in your Dropbox folder, so you could just upload it from there right-away. 

     

    I hope this helps!
