maybe instagram is using our device id to identify the 'main' phone and allow more limits on this one.

well we could slowly increase the limits with the new device id from the bot (it will always generate the same device id if you login with the same username) or we could try to extract these infos from your phone to use them.

see this link so get to know which infos are needed.

i dont know if this is possible but its worth a try

@breuerfelix Do we know what device ID is being used? If IMEI, that can be found within one's phone in "Settings"
