How to add multiple Instagram accounts

There are many of us out there who might have multiple Instagram accounts. This is normal. For example, you might be a photographer who uses Instagram to showcase their work, but then you might also have a personal account just for family and friends for regular day-to-day postings not related to work.

Or you might be a social media manager who has to juggle multiple Instagram accounts. So instead of logging in and out of each one everytime you want to check or make a post, Instagram actually allows the linking of multiple accounts together. This means that you just need to log into all those accounts at once and you’ll be able to quickly swap between them when you need, and here’s how.

Adding multiple Instagram accounts

1. Launch Instagram
2. Tap your profile photo to open your profile page
3. Tap the three lined icon at the top right corner of the app
4. Select Settings
5. Scroll to the bottom and tap “Add account”
6. Tap “Log in to existing account”
7. Enter the username and password of that account and tap “Log in”
8. Repeat the process for all the accounts you want to link together. Take note that Instagram only allows for up to the linking of 5 accounts at a time

Switch between multiple Instagram accounts

1. Launch Instagram
