Brilliant. Thank you for such a clear and concise video without me having to waste time listening to a long winded explanation! Any chance you can tell me if there's any disadvantage of switching from a business to a creator account?!

Guys!!first you have to switch your account into personal account and you will able to find account types and tools option in the settings and then switch to a professional account, and guys don't forget when you click the video creator or the creator or Digital creator option, you have to select the option that shown above (view on profile)

Hi there, thank you very much! Have you added this on a website anywhere as Instagram's own instructions on Google are out of date and don''t show this route via Accounts Centre? Business Type and Tools isn't mentioned!

Hi, thanks for the clear instructions.
I have a small art account and do not want to earn any money with it, i still want to have the insights, because it's honestly very interesting and helpful.
When I switch it to a creator account, can I get in trouble for using instagrams musics for my reels and stories?

Question! I've followed Instagram instructions on how to create a creator account (for monetization) and few minutes after completion I've been hit with an Established presence violation. Will the violation go away if my content get more likes, views, followers, etc?

Please help!!! I have a personal account, and now I would like to add a "creator account" not a business account. This will be a faceless creator account and I want to start from scratch with zero followers (and don't want friends on my personal account to know. Can you help me with what steps to take? I have heard to not enter my phone number and to enter a business email only. I am brand new to this, so I would really appreciate the step by step walk -through! Thanks so much!

Do you lose anything when switching from personal to creator? Like views or insights?

[szymonturek]

How to solve it? The option to add topics has disappeared on my accounts

[JonathanFrancoeur-jdtt]

On android I don't see "Account type and tools" or "tools and controls". There is no 'For professionals' Category between 'Your orders and Fundraisers' and 'More info and Support'.
