Two Factor Authentication

Recovery Codes

Once you enable two-factor authentication, Instagram will offer you recovery codes. Keep these codes in a safe place. If you lose your phone, you can access your account using these codes.

Compatibility with Applications

When two-factor authentication is enabled, you may need to create special app passwords to connect your Instagram account to third-party apps.

What is Two-Factor Authentication?

Extra layer of protection that doubles your account security

Two-factor authentication (2FA) requires a second verification step in addition to your password when logging into your Instagram account. This significantly increases the security of your account because even if attackers get hold of your password, they will not be able to log into your account without access to the second factor.

How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication?

  • Open the Instagram app and go to your profile.
  • Tap the menu icon (three lines) in the top-right corner and select "Settings & Privacy."
  • Go to "Security" > "Two-Factor Authentication".
  • Tap "Start" or "Add Verification Method".
  • Choose one of the verification methods available to you (SMS, Authenticator App or WhatsApp).
  • Complete the installation by following the on-screen instructions.
  • Take note of the recovery codes you will be offered or keep the screenshot in a safe place.
Safety Tip

The authenticator app option (like Google Authenticator, Authy) is more secure than SMS because it is protected against SIM card hacking.

Verification Methods

SMS

Verification with the 6 digit code sent to your phone when logging in.

Authenticator

Generating codes with apps like Google Authenticator or Authy.

WhatsApp

Verification with code sent via WhatsApp.
