Instagram is popular social networking site where people can share and stream photos and videos generated by users. This article will discuss and delve into the recurring issue of invite collaborator option on Instagram that is not showing up or gone missing from the app menu.
One user can invite another to collaborate with them on an Instagram video post or reel using the “Collab” feature. If the invitee approves, the post’s or reel’s header will feature both accounts, and the material will be shared with both users’ Instagram followers.
But for some people, this social collaboration feature stopped functioning due to a glitch or bug or another problem that we’ll be looking into today. We’re not exactly sure why but one thing’s for sure, it’s easily correctable.
How to Troubleshoot Issue & Fix Instagram Invite Collaborator Option using Collab Feature Not Showing Up or Gone Missing Problem
Suppose you don’t have the option to Invite Collaborators option showing up on your Instagram app, you’re in the right place. We’ll provide you with three different options to bring in the Invite collaborator option and make it show up on your Instagram account.
1. Verify your Instagram Account Type
First, you must change your Instagram account to a different type of account. You need to figure out what kind of account you have on Instagram right now. It must be one of these Instagram account types available for different users:
- Account for yourself
- Account on the Job
- Account for business
If your account is personal and private, you must make it public instead of private. Then you have to wait about two to three days. Now, it’s fine if you have the option to “invite collaborator.” If you don’t want to do that, you must change your Instagram account to a business account and wait for two to three days. If you still can’t find the option to invite a collaborator on Instagram, you’ll have to change your account to a business account and wait for another two or three days for the change to take effect.
Still, if the option to “Invite Collaborator” doesn’t show up this way, do the solution next.
2. Report the Collab Tool Issue to Instagram Support Team
As the second solution, you have to tell the Instagram user support team that the Invite collaborator is not showing up on your account by sending them a message. Follow the steps below to report your Collab feature error to the Instagram team about the Invite Collaborator option missing problem on your account.
- Start by opening the Instagram app on your mobile device.
- Hit the Profile logo on the right side of the screen.
- Tap the Menu button, which is in the upper right corner.
- Go to the Settings menu.
- Tap the “Help” button.
- Choose the option “Report a Problem.”
- Then talk about the Report a problem page.
- Next, enter your message reporting the issue and attach a snapshot of your invite collaborator error.
- Select the Submit button to file your complaint.
Wrapping It Up
Make sure the Instagram Collab feature is first accessible in your country. Try updating your Instagram app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store to run the latest software version. Instagram users who don’t have the newest version will be unable to use the function.
None of this has worked for me. Mine has been gone Since around the beginning of Dec 2022.
