For years the mystery behind the magical blue checkmark was the holy grail for instagram
users, but now, instagram will allow just about anyone to request a verification badge.
Welcome back to IO I'm charlotte dobre.
Over the last few years, I must have googled 'how to verify my instagram' like at least
10 times.
Theres something about that pretty blue checkmark that says, hey mom, I made it.
But the way to get verified was pretty much unknown.
No one really knew how to get verified, you definitely couldn't apply or email instagram
about it.
And if you did, they would probably laugh at your request and ignore the email.
Apparently there was also a black market where people charge thousands of dollars to hook
you up with verification, but more likely they would probably just take your money and
disappear.
What was clear though, in order to be verified, you had to be famous enough or instafamous
enough that the people at instagram had to know about you in order for them to verify
your account.
Or for there to be enough fake accounts claiming to be you.
Well friends, that is no longer the case.
Instagram has a brand new feature, where any user can request to be verified.
And here's how to do it.
First, go to your profile.
Then you gotta get to settings by clicking on those 3 little bars at the top right hand
corner.
At the bottom of that page, theres a settings option.
Click it.
Once in the options page, scroll down to request verification.
The next page is a form that says . A verified badge is a check that appears next to an instagram
account's name to indicate that the account is the authentic presence of a notable public
figure, celebrity, global brand or entity it represents.
Fill in your username, your full name, and then attach a picture of a government issued
piece of ID.
Like a drivers license, passport or national identification card.
Either that, or if you're a business, attach your utility bill, article of incorporation
or tax filing.
The piece of id has to include your birth date.
Then, you wait.
If your account gets verified, you'll get a notification, and then that beautiful new
checkmark will appear next to your name.
But then theres the catch.
Submitting a request for verification does not guarantee that your account will be verified.
And instagram will be focusing on accounts with a large number of followers.
But having a lot of followers doesn't mean that someone with a lesser amount wont get
verified.
I have a friend with 4 thousand followers and his account is verified.
I have other friends with over 100k who aren't verified.
So kids, go forth and get that pretty blue checkmark.
May the gram be with you.
Bomb – am I the only one who has a massive crush on charlotte.
Ohhh you guys know how to make a gal feel special.
Rodrigo Estrada – You should make bloopers a once every 2 to 4 weeks thing.
I actually don't mess up that often but I guess now I have a motivation to mess up?
We are thinking of making bloopers a monthly thing though so stay tuned for the next one.
Discord Night – Charlotte the scandal hunter.
I wonder if I can put scandal hunter on my resume.
Mercy – IO is coming for keemstars job.
Yep.
Hear that keemstar, I'm coming for YOU! he probably wont see this, he only watches
videos with his name or drama alert in the title.
I know this because he retweeted a recent video we did on him.
The video is over!
If you wanna keep watching IO, theres a playlist over here for you with a bunch of videos just
like this one, and obviously if you enjoyed this video, smash the like, subscribe and
notification bell, and I will see you in a future IO video.
