I have a question about reach on Instagram supporting multiple accounts on one device. Does it actually have an impact? And does using new or old accounts also affect reach? As far as I'm concerned I notice changes all the time. Once I get great reach even stealing reels without changing metadata etc (more from original creators in a couple of days) and sometimes on aged accounts no reach. On one device on the same ip I was already using 7/8 accounts and reach was random, on the 6th account on the same device I still had great reach. I don't use proxy because I can't upload reels then. On Facebook I have no problem with that. Does anyone here use LTE+Proxy and have no problem uploading reels?

I will explain. It is a good thing that you can have multiple accounts per device as it will allow you to have more profiles. However, if one account gets suspended, theres a high chance that the others in that app will to. Doesnt always happen, but it can.

There are indeed some influencing factors regarding the reach rate of Instagram supporting multiple accounts on one device. Here are a few key points you need to consider:
Factors affecting arrival rate
Account age:
New accounts may often face stricter restrictions in the early stages, especially in terms of content promotion and reach rates. Old accounts usually have better coverage due to historical interactions and audience base.
Content quality and consistency:
Even on the same device, the content quality and theme consistency of different accounts can affect the reach rate. The relevance and attractiveness of content directly affect user interaction.
IP address and device:
Using multiple accounts on the same IP address may be considered abnormal behavior by Instagram, leading to a decrease in coverage for certain accounts.
Interaction and Participation:
The interaction history of the account (such as likes, comments, shares, etc.) will affect how the algorithm promotes your content. Active accounts usually receive better exposure.
Content type:
Different types of content (such as scrolls, images, stories) perform differently in algorithms, and certain types of content may be more easily disseminated.
Considerations for using a proxy server
Advantages of proxy servers:
Using LTE or other types of proxies can help you publish content on different IP addresses, reducing the risk of being identified as abnormal activity.
Limitations on uploading scrolls:
Proxy servers may affect upload speed and stability, especially under high load conditions, which may result in upload failures.
suggestion
Test different accounts:
Try posting the same content on different accounts and observe changes in reach rates to find the best practices.
Keep your account active:
Ensure that all accounts have a certain level of interaction and engagement to improve overall reach rates.
Consider using a proxy:
If you find that the arrival rate is not ideal, you can consider using a proxy server, but make sure to choose a reliable service to avoid upload issues.
Tak, ale ja używając proxy w telefonie nie mogę przesyłać rolek, możliwe, że to kwestia zbyt wolnego internetu, używam LTE + proxy, przesyłanie zatrzymuje się przy 90%. Na Facebooku nie mam tego problemu. Dlatego zamiast ciągle rozłączać się z proxy, aby przesyłać rolki, wolę używać jednego adresu IP, który mam. Możliwe, że na moim komputerze mógłbym przesyłać rolki za pomocą proxy, ponieważ mam światłowód. Nie wiem, czy Ty też masz ten problem, ja po prostu używam proxy ISP i nigdy nie miałem problemu, tylko jedyną rzeczą jest to, że na moim telefonie nie mogę przesyłać filmów.
W moim doświadczeniu na starych kontach do tej pory otrzymałem najgorszy Reach. Na nowych kontach, które ktoś założył i wysłał mi dane logowania bez rozgrzewki, wstawiłem rolki tego samego dnia i osiągnąłem kilkaset tysięcy wyświetleń po dwóch dniach, więc wydaje mi się, że wszystko jest losowe i nie zawsze przestrzega zasad

Using multiple Instagram accounts on one device can affect reach, potentially. But not always in a predictable way. New accounts sometimes get temporary boost (also called "new account honeymoon") to encourage content posting and retention. This boost is short-lived unless you keep engagement high. Instagram doesn’t always check metadata or originality unless copyright enforcement is triggered. Sometimes re-uploaded Reels go viral purely.

I’ve noticed the same thing reach feels totally random sometimes. I use multiple accounts on one device too, no proxy, and some still go viral. I’ve tried LTE+proxy before but had issues uploading reels as well. Would love to hear if anyone’s got a stable setup that works.

From what I've seen, running multiple IG accounts on the same device, IP, etc. can impact reach. Not consistently though (I have personal accounts on the same device and home IP which are doing alright, note that they are personal though so the scale isn't large by any means but I don't find any of them negatively affected by the setup). Seems to me it has more to do with patterns of use, access behaviour, post frequency and whether any of them trigger light flags such as spammy activity and whatnot. Aged accounts get away with a lot more than newer accounts but it's not a guarantee though, some stale out and some perform pretty well.
For the proxies, LTE/mobile proxies tend to work better for IG if you're all about replicating real user behaviour. If you can’t upload reels while connected, then honestly it could be due to several factors but best to first check if it could be a quality issue with the proxy or how it’s routing traffic. Work through one possible factor at a time, have control tests too if you viable.
Speaking of, it's worth testing LTE + mobile proxy + manual posting to see if you can stabilize reach across fresh profiles.

As for Instagram I used ISP proxies, and had no problem with bans, etc. I did the biggest Reach on these proxies. As for mobile proxies, the cheapest deal I found was $50 for 30 days for one proxy4g, and I got ISP for $2 a month. I would already rather buy a new phone and SIM card. With one mobile proxy provider I found that I had to spend more than $500 for a month, because that was my daily MB usage xd.
And what do you say about using Instagram on mullvad vpn for example? Because I wanted to start using vpn anyway, will there be any problems/bans? Especially if I would like to maintain minimally more anonymity, I would prefer to have vpn on all the time on this phone on which I have to use Instagram, if this is a bad idea, ok I will stay with the proxy.
As for reach, I get it but very little compared to the two previous accounts, a friend made an account yesterday put up some reels and has dozens of times more reach than me in one day on poor quality videos. In the “account status” section I have everything in green, but still something may be wrong.

So, a friend of mine after 4/5 bans on Instagram opened a new account and under each reels is rapidly gaining thousands of impressions, I for a few days stop at 2/3 thousand, the displays stand still and do not grow. I know I've already used too many accounts on one device and IP, so I want to change that now before logging into new accounts but I still think it's random and my friend is the best proof now. Facebook has gone down a lot over the last year lots of bans for no reason, bugs I think Instagram has the same. Other devices, ip is all important, but there are people who do all this and still complain. It's just that either Instagram helps you or it doesn't. I currently on the accounts I have I see that reach is especially severely limited for me. It can be noticed simply, on poor quality reels I had 400k views in 2 days, and now it stops at a few hundred views hah.
Are ISP proxies not recommended for Instagram? I used and did not get banned because of it and using Proxy isp I had no problems with Reach. mainly it's about the price of mobile proxy for consumption for one account I was looking at I would have to spend probably several hundred dollars
From what I have noticed the preparation of the device and everything separately is only 50% of the success if not less. I say this only because I pressed achieve Reach after Bans on other accounts and the creation of multiple accounts. With my knowledge and technical experience the only thing I can do is.
1. use another phone with a new SIM card
2. clean up the phone and use a new ip address using a proxy
I know it's not much but I think it should be enough

I heard Mullvad is good for IG and TikTok, especially their UK servers. What ISP proxy provider are you using?
