When a user sets up two-factor authentication from the Instagram account, he/she will be asked to choose one of three security methods: First, an authentication app, like Google Duo, or Google Authenticator, secondly users can get a text message on their smartphones when they enter their mobile number, lastly, users can get the login codes from their WhatsApp account.
