Instagram: how to change your password
There is nothing easier than this to change your Instagram account password. The procedure takes less than a minute on hand.
- To get started, open the Instagram app.
- Then press the button that represents three rows in a row.
- Then “access the menu”Settings“.
- Once in the settings, tap on “.Security“after that”Password“.
- There, you must enter your current password to be able to enter a new one.
- The new password must be entered twice.
Instagram recommends using a strong password including at least 6 characters plus a combination of numbers, letters and special characters (!$@%). Also, if you want to add an extra level of security, you can choose two-factor authentication.
Recently, Instagram also allows people who forgot their passwords to reset their passwords with the Facebook application. Pretty practical!
How do I enable two factor authentication?
Now that we’ve come to this point, it would be a shame not to tell you how to enable two-factor authentication.
- Always in parameters, then “Security“press on”Two factor authentication“.
- Then press the ” buttonTo start“.
- There, you can choose from several two-factor authentication methods.
- One that lets you authenticate through a third-party authentication app.
- Or with a 6-digit confirmation code sent via text message.
