How To Set Up Instagram  2-Step Verification on iPhone

How to Set Up Instagram  2-Step Verification on iPhone I will be showing you how to do this  on my trusty iPhone 12 cell phone. Step 1: Find the Instagram  App on your phone/device   and Tap it. If you need to log in, do so now. Once on your home screen, look  to the bottom of the screen   and find your little profile icon.  This is the far right one. Tap it. Now that we are on your profile page, head to the  top right and tap on the three horizontal lines. At the bottom of this menu tap the Settings  link– that has the gear icon next to it. On this menu look for Security and tap it. Here is where you should see the option  for two-step, or as they call it,   Two-Factor Authentication. Tap it. You will now see a Two-Factor introduction screen.   It’s time to Tap the Get  Started button at the bottom. Once you do that, you will see this screen  where you can choose which security Method   you would like to set up. They give you two  options for the Two-Factor Authentication:  1. Text Message 2. Authentication App  For this article, I will be choosing  the first one, “Text Message”. Tap it. Add your security code. The system will be sending you a confirmation  code to your phone. Type the code in on this   screen and then tap Next. Now tap the  Done button and you will be all set up. After tapping the Done button, you  will end up on one more screen.   This one is your Account recovery screen that  will give you recovery codes for your account.   You will want to save these in a safe place.  The codes are so if you can’t receive a code   via text message or Auth App. It is always good  to have a backup plan when keeping your account   safe. To leave this screen, look to the top  left and tap the arrow next to Account Recovery. That is all you need to do to set up that  Two-Factor Authentication. Now, don’t you feel   much safer? I know I do, so share this with all  your friends and family to keep them safe, too. If this was useful, please  like share and subscribe. You can watch more videos from the right.
