This requires that you provide them with confirmations from the email and phone numbers linked to the account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It becomes a burden for the Instagram user who is no longer using the number linked to his or her account or the email linked to the account. This sometimes becomes quite troublesome and worrying but we are going to give you the best guidelines to deal with this issue regarding the Instagram app. Just Read More!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do I see Help Us Confirm You Own This Account Instagram?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram users mostly after logging in to their Instagram account on a device do not have to re-login when they relaunch the app on the device. For that matter, they are not made to confirm they own their own accounts unnecessarily like you are seeing now. If you face this issue, then you must definitely know there is something wrong somewhere regarding your Instagram account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is imperative to know as an Instagram user that whenever you receive the &#8220;Help us confirm you own this account&#8221; pop-up on Instagram, your account may have been logged in by another user in a different location, with a different device other than what Instagram knows you for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore this pop-up by Instagram is a means through which the Instagram app can confirm or in other words, verify that you are the true owner of the account. If this happens, it is indirectly informing you the owner of the account, that your account is being accessed elsewhere because receiving &#8220;Help us confirm you own this account&#8221; suddenly is very unusual of Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are other reasons for this other than someone elsewhere trying to have access to your account. On the other hand, if you fall under the Instagram users who use the Virtual Private Network (VPN) or a proxy to access your account on Instagram, you may be bothered by this issue a lot because of the change in location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other Instagram users who also do not log into their account with just one device are also prone to receiving this pop-up a lot because whenever there is a change in the device and location of access to your Instagram account, your identity is required.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/96B00AF9-C70B-448C-9F77-E8B1178C45B9-473x1024.png\" alt=\"help us confirm you own this account Instagram\" class=\"wp-image-8040 lazyload\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 473px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 473\/1024;\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/96B00AF9-C70B-448C-9F77-E8B1178C45B9-473x1024.png\" alt=\"help us confirm you own this account Instagram\" class=\"wp-image-8040 lazyload\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 473px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 473\/1024;\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/96B00AF9-C70B-448C-9F77-E8B1178C45B9-473x1024.png\" alt=\"help us confirm you own this account Instagram\" class=\"wp-image-8040\" title=\"\"><\/noscript><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>You must not forget that Instagram is very particular about the security of its users and whenever there is a suspicious login into any Instagram account, the identity of the user is at risk and it must be verified as soon as possible before further issues come up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hackers are actually all over the place on diverse social media platforms including the Instagram app with bots and or spam accounts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore the slightest means they get access to your account logins, you may find yourself wanting with your security on the Instagram app, highly at stake.

Below is the code you are required to use to access your Instagram account. If possible, copy and paste the code sent by Instagram to your mail into the given space to insert the code. If not, insert the exact code given by Instagram to confirm your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If only your phone number is linked to your Instagram account, you should make sure you can receive a text message on the number so that Instagram can easily send you the code via text message.

Complete Your Instagram Profile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You must make sure that you complete your Instagram profile in order to make it difficult to access your Instagram account. You should be able to feed Instagram with all the necessary information Instagram needs about your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes your original profile picture, linking an email and a phone number to your Instagram account verifying them accordingly. You should also try as much as possible to link as many social media accounts you have to your Instagram accounts such as Facebook and Whatsapp. This will make it easy to login to your account or easy to be contacted by Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2CB6883B-E606-4AA2-B674-4FDC6E0F03AF-edited.png\" alt=\"How to fix help us confirm you own this account Instagram - contact Instagram support\" class=\"wp-image-8053 lazyload\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/2CB6883B-E606-4AA2-B674-4FDC6E0F03AF-edited.png\" alt=\"How to fix help us confirm you own this account Instagram - contact Instagram support\" class=\"wp-image-8053\" title=\"\"><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Avoid Logging in to a Single Account from Several Devices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you login to a particular account, it makes it suspicious to Instagram. Logging in to the same account from multiple devices prevents you from accessing your account easily. Therefore you should not login to the sam account on numerous devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you login to your account on a different device, it is advised that you logout of your Instagram account on the normal device you use the account on, and then you can login to your account on the new device.

Set Up a Strong Password for Your Instagram Account<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to keep your account highly protected it is recommended that you set up a strong password for your Instagram account. Setting up a strong password for your Instagram account prevents your account from being hacked by just mere guessing or mere addition of alphabets or numbers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use upper and lower case letters, symbols, and numbers (eg., Bign246 or @*#&amp;*&amp;\/). You can also choose to mix the letters with the number and symbols (eg., design246 or @#BigerrD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To set up a strong password on Instagram kindly follow the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Launch the Instagram app on your android or iOS or launch Instagram via the browser at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.instagram.com<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Below the &#8220;Login&#8221; button, tap on &#8220;Forgot password&#8221; without inserting any login credentials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the next page that comes, enter either your Instagram username, email or phone number and tap on &#8220;Send login link&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to the email linked to your account and tap on the link sent to you from Instagram.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now enter and confirm your new Instagram account password (Insert a strong password like  (eg., design246 or @#BigerrD)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will receive another email from Instagram to secure your account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on &#8220;secure your account here&#8221; and confirm your data on Instagram.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now login to Instagram using your new Instagram password.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Turn on Two-Factor Authentication on Instagram<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we already stated earlier, your Instagram account can be logged in by just anyone since the individual has your Instagram login credentials. That is where the two-factor authentication on Instagram becomes a necessity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making sure that the two-factor authentication is activated on your Instagram account is a basic necessity as a Snapchat user as far as your privacy is concerned. Two-factor authentication enables you to protect your account aside from your normal Instagram login credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the steps below to enable the two-step verification on Instagram:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Launch the Instagram app on your Android or iOS or launch Instagram via the browser at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">instagram.com<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since you are already logged into the account, tap on your Profile account to go to your Instagram profile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on the three horizontal lines in the top right of your screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on Setting in the menu that you see.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down and tap on Security.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on &#8220;Two-factor authentication&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap on &#8220;Get started&#8221; at the next page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now choose your security mode. That is either you will receive the code through WhatsApp, the Authentication App (which is recommended by Instagram), and a text message for your phone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you choose WhatsApp, you will get the login code from Whatsapp.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you choose the authentication app, you will get the code through the app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you choose text message Instagram will send a login code to the number you choose (It is advised to use a different number other than the other number here).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now confirm the code and activate the two-factor authentication for your Instagram.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"8045\" data-src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigngh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/6C128FBE-0CC4-47F5-A4AA-0A863D12692D-473x1024.png\" alt=\"How to fix help us confirm you own this account Instagram - contact Instagram support\" class=\"wp-image-8045 lazyload\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 473px;
