Why Switch to a Creator Account?
Switching to a Creator account on Instagram is a game-changer. You’ll get advanced insights, better profile management, and some cool content tools to play with.
Ready to Make the Switch on Instagram? Here’s How:
Step 1
Check your profile and privacy settings
Take a moment to review your profile settings. Make sure your profile is public because Creator accounts can’t be private.
Step 2

Dive into your account settings
Open your Instagram app, go to your profile, and tap those three little lines in the top-right corner. Then, tap Settings.
Step 3

Find the ‘Account’ section
Scroll down in the Settings menu and tap on Account type and tools.
Step 4

Choose ‘Switch to Professional Account’
In the Account type and tools section, scroll down and tap on Switch to Professional Account.
Step 5

Pick your category and check your contact info
Instagram will ask you to pick a category that best describes what you do (like Artist, Blogger, or Chef). Once you’ve chosen, you’ll need to decide between a Business and a Creator account. Go for Creator.
