Not recieving SMS Authentication Code on iPhone 11 for Instagram
I've just upgrade to the iPhone 11 Pro. Love the phone, the camera is unreal, but not sure if I'm having a service issue or hardware app installation issue. I've downloaded Instagram, and had to reset my password. I've been trying to authenticate into Instagram. I get 90% of the way setting my password, then I get to the last mile where the SMS 4-digit code is not sending to my new device. I miss IG, can someone please help me troubleshoot why I'm not receiving the SMS Authentication code? Looks like this is a common issue/theme in the community thread.

Hello! I was wondering if you ever got your problem solved? I have the exact problem and haven't been able to find a solution.

Bump. I recently ported from Verizon recently, and upgraded to an iPhone 12 Pro. I’m also receiving this same issue, other short code sms messages seemed to have worked fine. Instagram is the only that I know that isn’t working.

Yes exactly. I called AT&T about it and they said the issue was resolved but it still isn’t working.

Everyone who is set up two-factor authentication are you using your full 10-digit phone number? I just noticed the OP referred to only 7 digits.

How does that work? My Instagram account has my full phone number, with my area code, connected to it so it should recognize all 10 digits. I’d think that works better than 7 digits.

I believe Instagram has switched from 4 digit verification codes to 6 digits. Instagram will even allow for me to input the phone number, and I’ve tried with +1 before the area code as well without. In the following prompt Instagram will say sent to (last 4 digits of number)
