How to link Instagram Accounts
Multiple Instagram Accounts Made Easy: Account Switching
Got multiple Instagram accounts?
One for business, one for fun?
Another one for another business? Or maybe your pet (I hear dogs love Insta).
Maintaining separate accounts is a highly recommended, yet frustrating, tactic.
Recommended, because Instagram users love to follow laser-focused accounts.
Frustrating, because you’ve had to sign in and out of one account to access another.
Instagram finally announced account switching February 8, 2016.
I got it that same day, after checking obsessively for days. It had already been rolling out for a week!

How can I create another Instagram account?
You can create a new Instagram account while you’re logged into your current account.
If you’ve already created multiple Instagram accounts, you can simply connect them, so skip to the next section.
Here’s how to create a new Instagram account that will instantly be connected to your current one:
Open your current Instagram account.
Go to your profile.
Find and tap the gear icon for Settings.
Scroll to the bottom. Tap Add Account.
DON’T fill in the log in screen. At the bottom of the page, tap Sign up.
You’ll see an option to use Facebook for sign-up. If you’re already using Facebook for your primary account, choose Sign Up With Phone or Email.
Enter your Phone or Email. *READ CAUTION BELOW!
If you choose Email, you’ll confirm your new account later. Open the email from Instagram and select Confirm your email address.
If you choose Phone, you’ll need to enter the verification number sent to your phone. Once you’ve entered the verification code, tap Next.
Next you’ll add your Instagram profile photo, Name, and Password.
