Instagram, is an American social networking service app used for sharing photos and videos. Founded in 2010 by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger and was later acquired by Facebook Inc. Users are allowed to upload media edited with filters and organized geographical tagging and use of Hashtags.
The Instagram app is used to apply digital filters to photos and could be linked to your Facebook account. There are a series of ways to link these accounts together making it easy to log into and switch accounts.
On Instagram, it is more than possible that you have multiple accounts whether public or private. However, it could be pretty difficult while try to share content between the multiple accounts. Unlinking those accounts could be the best option.
Unlinking these accounts can help secure your data and you would be needed to remove one in the login info menu. Also unlinking an account would mean deleting all your previous posts likes, comments, and even your followers as they can not be transferred from one account to another.
Once you unlink an Instagram account there is no going back as the app does not allow users to log in to multiple accounts with a single login.
