Hello,

Yesterday I was promoted to upload a selfie video to verify I’m the person who runs my Instagram account. I’ve tried uploading it all day and I get the same error message that says error please try again later. A never ending loophole. I’ve researched it & many people have been experiencing this issue since yesterday. I’ve tried resetting my phone, deleting & reinstalling the app, tried on a web browser, a friends phone, my second phone, connected a VPN... nothing. Anyone else have this issue or know a solution? Where can I fill out a help request form? I always get directed to the Instagrams help page which is also just a run around. It doesn’t give me an option to submit a help request form.

I attached a screenshot of the error message.



System Configuration: iPhone / Safari 14.0

Hey guys, I'm talking about Brazil. had the same problem for 2 days, after trying hard to solve and email Instagram support without return. I tried to perform the procedure through a friend's phone. I have a Motorola Android, which was not working at all, my friend's phone is an Iphone 7 Plus, I tried his skin and it worked, I hope I can help

Hi, I had the same problem. I took a video selfie and it always showed me an error. and that for 3 days! :(
i have an iphone. just took the phone from my cousin who has a samsung, and it worked for her! I was able to log back in on her phone, and then on mine too.

Hi guys, I had the same problems that you and I tried all these solutions that you posted here but none of them worked. So my last chance was log in in using my sister's iPhone since I just have 2 Android phones, and it worked.
I just put my account in her phone, then I received the SMS code for the security access, after that instead of getting the blank screen (like when I was using my Android) I got the video selfie process and after doing it I could send the video and thats all, I could get in in my account and everything was normal.
After that I log in again in my Android device (also with my computer) and everyting was fine, so my advice is to try with an IOS device.

Wish you luck!
