• It is actually a requirement by Meta (FB/IG) that their users should have an Instagram Business Account with a Facebook page linked to it in order to have access to the features of 3rd-party apps. If you currently don't have a Facebook page, one workaround suggested is to just create a dummy FB page and connect it to your IG Business account.
