Hey, guys.

I am really hoping that you can help me out.

I have mistyped my email on my IG profile. It has kicked me out and I cannot sign in. How can I recover the account? Can I do it at all?

Please advise. I'm not finding any support on IG.

Hello, you can try and contact Instagram support directly using the information in this article.
Hello,

I appreciate your response.

However, I have gone through all the steps and nowhere it states anything about mistyped email.

The ***@*** is not reachable.

Is there anything else that comes to your mind? Thank you in advance.

By the way, I had to to factory reset my iPhone in order to regain access to the app, but now the account remains with a mistyped email.

Hi,

If possible, you can try to create the mistyped email as long as the mistake is not in the domain name.
Unfortunately it is the domain. Any other ideas?
Please let me know if there is a solution

Try logging in using your credentials from a familiar device, browser and location if you know your password. In case Instagram won't let you access the account, I'm afraid that recovery will not be possible, unless you've registered a mobile number...

Take a look at this page on how to reset your password when you can't access your email address, but if the methods didn't help you, consider creating a new account. Sorry.
