Instagram crashing on iOS 11.4

Hello all!


I have an iPhone 6S 64GB running iOS 11.4.


Instagram will not open on my device at all. I tap the app on my home screen, it shows the Instagram logo, and it instantly sends me back to my home screen. If I double tap the home button, I see that the app is still open, but any time I try tapping it it crashes.


I have already tried restarting my device, checking for an update (an update was actually released today but it didn't solve the problem unfortunately), checked for an update of iOS, and I have deleted the app and reinstalled it, all to no avail.


If it helps, I recently restored this iPhone from a previous backup of an iPhone 5C, running whatever the latest iOS that was available for it.

The update has obvious bugs given the fact it completely bricks phones. The majority of users seem to be able to reinstall Instagram after a hard reset however that’s not working for some of us. You can’t report the issue to Instagram because their system of reporting issues requires you to do so through the app, which will not open. So you can see our predicament.

I've done this and it didn't work. I have also tried every other suggestion I've found online yet Instagram will not open. Is there anywhere I could find a tentative date when the next iOS mini update will happen? Because this is incredibly frustrating having to toy with my phone settings, data, and backups only for literally nothing to work. I can't foresee any other trick working so I think the only solution to this issue for everyone is for Apple to send out another update.
