Do you have more than one Instagram account? Instagram Version 7.15 lets you add up to 5 accounts without having to constantly switch between them and login to each individually. While the Instagram update for iOS and Android is already available from the App Store or Google Play, the multi-login access feature for all devices will slowly roll-out this week.

How to switch between multiple Instagram accounts

No more logging out and logging back in time after time. Simply go to your profile page. Tap the gear or three dots icon in the top left corner to access the options menu. Scroll down to find add account. Enter your login username and password. Go back to your profile page. Tap on your username at the top center of the screen. You will be prompted to select the account you wish to switch to. You may add up to 5 accounts.

Once you’re signed in on multiple accounts, you will start to receive push notifications for each account you are logged into. However, the amount of notifications you get from each account depend on when you last logged in and the number of devices connected to that specific account.

Version 7.15 also brings 3D Touch support for the iPhone 6s. When surfing through posts in grid view, press and hold for an expand shortcut. In addition, quickly preview a profile or hashtag using 3D Touch in your Instagram feed. When viewing your home screen, 3D Touch the Instagram app icon and instantly create a new post or view your direct messages.
