In the official Instagram mobile app, you can log in and use up to 5 accounts simultaneously on one device.
How many instagram accounts can you have on 1 device?

Five. But if you're managing more than five, you're better off using separate browser profiles or dedicated tools to keep each account in its own isolated environment.
I do not think there is any real magic number. i have has multiple people logged into my phone at a tym but once you get into the higher numbers, switching or checking becomes a pain.

Each phone number only allows you to use one Instagram account. However, you can register using email without a phone number.
Instagram has really high security. If you have more than one account and, let's say, 1 of your accounts gets banned, all the other accounts will definitely be affected, and you might lose them all. It really depends on what you do on it, so I always prefer to have 2-3 accounts per device at most, depending on what you are doing, of course.

Official app limit is 5 but thats for clean personal accounts. if you are doing any actual marketing or running semi-automated setups even 3 on the same device is risky because of device fingerprinting. @AmardeepM mentioned cloners but most free android cloners leak your actual device ID and MAC address anyway, so IG links them instantly. if you want to run more than 2 or 3 safely you need to look into proper antidetect browsers with mobile proxies... otherwise they eventually chain-ban everything on that device.

Max 5 Accounts per Phone, Any answer other than this is going to put your accounts into trouble. And the answer also depends on what actions do you want to do with the accounts, If too many actions then I dont suggest anything more than 3-4 Accounts per Phone.

Instagram allows up to 5 accounts on one device. Once you’re running more, keeping each account in a separate profile helps keep them isolated and reduces the chance of them getting linked or triggering extra security checks.
