How to Keep Your Storrito Connection Stable with Instagram's Updated Security Requirements

Instagram Security Updates and Two-Factor Authentication Requirements

Instagram has strengthened its account security requirements. Many accounts are now encouraged or required to enable two-factor authentication to maintain stable account access and reduce the risk of login interruptions.

If two-factor authentication is not enabled, you may experience connection issues, login challenges, or interrupted posting workflows.

Why This Matters for Storrito Users

If you use Storrito to schedule and publish Instagram Stories, your setup depends on a stable and secure connection to your Instagram account.

Instagram has increased its focus on account security. Accounts without two-factor authentication may be flagged for additional verification or temporary login restrictions.

If your account connection becomes unstable, your scheduled Stories may fail to publish.

Step 1: Confirm You Are Using a Professional Account

Storrito works best with professional Instagram accounts. This means either a Business account or a Creator account.

To check, open the Instagram app. Go to Settings, then Account. If you see the option "Switch to Professional Account," your account is currently personal.

Switching to a professional account can improve reliability and access to Instagram features.

Step 2: Enable Two-Factor Authentication

To reduce login interruptions and improve account security, enable two-factor authentication.

To enable two-factor authentication:

• Open the Instagram app.
• Navigate to the Meta Accounts Center.
• Select Password and Security.
• Tap Two-Factor Authentication.
• Choose your preferred method, such as an authentication app or SMS verification.

Follow the prompts until activation is complete.

This helps prevent unauthorized access and reduces the likelihood of connection interruptions.

Step 3: Check Your Account Connection in Storrito

After enabling two-factor authentication, review your connection inside Storrito. It is not unusual to become disconnected from your devices - including Storrito - after enabling or adding a 2FA device:

• Open your Storrito dashboard.
• Check that your Instagram account is still connected.
• If you see a disconnection message, follow the on-screen instructions to reconnect your account.

This ensures your login session is current and fully authenticated.

Step 4: Reconnect Your Account if Needed

If you experience connection issues, you can also fully refresh your Instagram account inside Storrito.

• Remove the existing connection from the Instagram accounts overview.
• Add the account again and complete the login flow.

Make sure to approve all prompts during the login procedure. These confirmations ensure that your account connection remains stable.

Step 5: Test a Scheduled Story

Schedule a simple test Story. Set the publish time a few minutes ahead and confirm that it posts successfully.

This verifies that:

• Your login session is active.
• Two-factor authentication is enabled.
• Your account connection is stable.

If the Story does not publish, repeat the reconnection process and check your security settings.

Common Questions

Do I need two-factor authentication to use Storrito? It is strongly recommended. Accounts without it are more likely to face login interruptions or disconnections.

Will enabling two-factor authentication change how I log in? Yes. You will need to confirm your identity with a 2FA code during login. This improves account security.

Can I still use a personal account? Yes, but professional accounts generally offer better stability and access to Instagram features.

What happens if I disable two-factor authentication later? Your account may be flagged for additional verification, which can interrupt your connection.
