Can not share Etsy to Instagram

[LunaEssence]

Is it just me or is it the new Etsy App? 

Anyone else having this issue?

I always found this difficult too.  Instagram is always on your smart phone and the only way I've ever been able to share any of my Etsy items is first of all to have pics on my smart phone of some of my listings, go into Instagram on my phone, upload from there and add my own caption including a link to my shop.  Hope this helps, our maybe I'll learn new stuff myself via answers to this post.

I have the same issue. It's so frustrating that they keep reminding us to switch to the new app when it's not ready. Things I see missing are:

A. Unable to share to social media.

B. Unable to edit shop announcement.

C. Unable to use Etsy forums

D. Unable to edit shop FAQs.

And those are just the ones I've found;  I'm sure there are other shortcomings as well. I hope Etsy makes these improvements prior to discontinuing the original app.

I had downloaded the new and for weeks I couldn't share  on Ingram. So, with the advice from a forum post, I downloaded the old app and began to share. It will not be available after May 31st. 

Ridiculous not to have social media connected to the phone app. Someone fix this before 6/1... please

Thank you. I thought I was having the issue. I appreciate all your posts.

Has Etsy fixed this giant mistake on their part yet?  I am still having the same issue!!
