Instagram App will not open

Hi, I just got and set up my new iPhone 13 Pro. I loaded the data from my old phone and put the SIM card in. Everything works great, except my instagram app will not open. It just crashes instantly. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, turning my phone off and on, updating, etc. how can I solve this problem?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

Hello,


Unfortunately, there does seem to be some kind of issue involving the iPhone 13/13 Pro and Instagram that prevents the app that Instagram/Meta need to fix.


There seems to be no technical support for Instagram/Meta, so the only thing you can do is report the issue using another device. If enough people report the issue, hopefully they will notice: How do I report a technical problem on Instagram?

This isn't any help. It works on my old iPhone but not my new iPhone. Gonna have to return the iPhone because I can't trust it will be fixed soon or it's not a new device problem.

Is that what instagram told you when you contacted them it was an iphone 13 issue? Nothing to do with the last update that they had.... You can't trust an iphone because a social media app won't open because an issue with the social media itself.


Wow such a big issue....

Unfortunately I don't really care who's issue it is - when I purchased a new phone it doesn't work with the Apps I'm needing to use than it's useless to me. It's a business account on my Instagram that I need working, so I'm going back to the old phone until whoever is responsible can fix the issue. I can't wait and hope that Meta fixes it - they don't really have support and I have more important things in my life than to spend hours trying to get a new phone to work.
