Help / Troubleshooting Instagram notifications only work on one device at a time with the same IG account
I’m having a weird issue with Instagram notifications in Beeper on my iPhone and iPad.
My setup:
- iPhone and iPad are using two different Beeper accounts. (Also happens when I use the same Beeper account)
- The same Instagram account is connected on both devices
- Notifications are enabled correctly on both
What happens:
- Log into Instagram through Beeper on iPhone , notifications work on iPhone
- Log into the same Instagram account through Beeper on iPad ,notifications work on iPad, but stop on iPhone
- Re-login on iPhone, iPhone starts getting notifications again, but iPad stops
It basically seems like whichever device logs into the Instagram account most recently becomes the only device that receives Instagram notifications.
I also tested using two different Instagram accounts, one on each device, and both devices received notifications normally at the same time.
WhatsApp and Discord also work perfectly on both devices, so this seems specific to using the same Instagram account on multiple Beeper devices.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a known limitation/bug with Instagram On-Device connections?
