Switch in the Instagram app
- Step 1: Open the Instagram app and go to your profile.
- Step 2: Tap the menu (the three lines, top right).
- Step 3: Tap Settings and activity.
- Step 4: Tap Account type and tools.
- Step 5: Tap Switch to professional account.
- Step 6: Choose Creator (or Business) and finish.
It’s free and takes about a minute. Your posts and followers stay the same, and you don’t need a Facebook Page.
Then connect
Come back to Mingly and tap Connect Instagram again. If you were already on the “personal account” message, tap “I’ve switched — try again”. You can also skip this and tap Continue when Instagram asks you to “Change to professional account” while you connect.
