So I have 2 Instagram apps on my phone. Instander is my personal account and instathunder is my “lewd” account (mostly cosplay girls and such). They’re on separate apps and use separate emails, however, my main accounts search page is like 90% cosplay/goth/alt girls. I have never looked that up on my personal account but its all that’s being recommended.

Are they reading information from each other? How can I stop this? Also, how do I get my personal accounts feed to be normal again?

    There’s also other identifiers on the phone. IMEI for example.

    Also: List of installed applications Accounts on the phone Phone Serial Number

    All this is why I root phones, use the work profile, etc, to limit what apps can access. If preventing access to this info breaks an app, well, I just don’t use that app.

      IMEI is not provided to apps by default in newer Android versions. It’s awful that it took them so long to change this
