Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sign up for Instagram without a phone number?

Yes — Instagram accepts email registration. Use your Specter address and you won't need to provide a phone number.

Does Meta share my email with other apps?

Meta links email addresses across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp for advertising. A disposable address breaks that link.
