Yes, Instagram lets more than one approved tool connect to your account. The risk is not a ban; it is two tools answering the same comment.
What goes wrong with two tools
- Both see the same comment.
- Instagram allows one private reply per comment, so the second tool's DM is usually refused, or the person gets two different messages.
- Two public replies appear under one comment.
- Your logs in each tool show confusing failures.
How to run two tools safely
- Split by post. Tool A handles reels; Tool B handles a launch post. Never both on the same post.
- Split by trigger. One tool for comments, another only for story replies or DMs.
- Turn off every-post automations in one of the tools, because those overlap with everything.
Switching from one tool to another
- Recreate your automations in the new tool.
- Test each from a second account.
- Switch off the old tool's automations on the same posts.
- Disconnect the old tool when you are sure.

Frequently asked questions
Will two tools get my account banned?
No, if both use Meta's official API. The problem is double replies, not a ban.
Which tool gets the comment first?
Both usually receive it at almost the same time. Do not rely on order; split posts instead.
Can I connect DM Flow and keep my old tool for stories?
Yes. Use DM Flow for comments and the other tool for story replies.
