I hope someone can help. This seems like a pretty common situation, so I don’t know why I can’t figure out a good solution.

I work for a small business and we don’t have a marketing department. We all kind of share posting on social media. I’ve taken the reins on instagram because I know it best.

Well some things on instagram are mobile-only, and so far I’ve just been avoiding them. I don’t want to add my work’s insta account alongside all my others in the phone app because I don’t want them sharing info and I’d have to delete one anyway, since I have the max of personal accounts already.

ChatGPT told me I could set up family sharing, but I don’t know if that’s what I need, and the phone didn’t let me click on it anyway.

Then I thought, how cool would it be if I could have a separate phone profile for all my work stuff?! I could keep my calendar, email, and contacts separate, etc. like it’s two phones in one! But I can’t figure out how to do that either. Is there a way? Google says no.

Or circling back around, is there a simple way to make my work computer think it’s a phone so I can just use the instagram app on that?

What am I missing? Why is this so complex? What do social media people do to keep work and home apps separate? Just have two phones? That seems pretty annoying.
