Soon Users will be Able to Recover their Instagram Hacked Accounts

Most Hackers alter the username and contact data, in order to curb this, Instagram is working to introduce a safeguard that will prevent these type of actions. In case any account changes occur, then it will be confirmed whether it is a hack or a voluntary change.

According to the Engadget report:

As part of the new test process, for recovery, users are being asked to fill in their personal information such as their original email address or phone number and later send them a six-digit code to the contact information of their choice

This new method will be helpful to ensure account recovery even if the hacker alters the username and contact information linked to the account. However, It is not clear yet that when the in-app recovery will be available for users but it is certain that this upcoming feature will be functional on both Android users and iOS devices.
