Managing one Instagram account is overwhelming enough. Dealing with two or more accounts at a time is mission impossible. Especially when you have to repeatedly log in and out to switch between them — all while generating new content. However, it’s not that bad. Here we’ve put together a short guide that can make your Instagram life easier. Even though Instagram has made switching between
