What Changed in ReachOwl’s Account Connection Process?
In the past, when users added social accounts like Facebook and Instagram to ReachOwl, they were required to:
- Enter account credentials inside ReachOwl
- Then manually log in to the same account again in a new browser tab
This two-step manual method caused a major risk — account blocks or security warnings.
Why Was This a Problem?
When logging into the same account from two different IP addresses:
- IP #1: ReachOwl logs in using a proxy (your configured IP)
- IP #2: User manually logs in from their own local IP address
This made it look suspicious to Facebook or Instagram — leading to:
- Temporary login restrictions
- Verification checks
- Account blocks or disablement
It was frustrating and risky for users, especially those managing multiple accounts.
The New & Improved Way: Seamless Login via Chrome Extension
Now, you no longer need to manually log in to social accounts in a separate tab.
Here’s what’s new:
- Install the ReachOwl Chrome Extension (only once)
- When you add a social account inside the ReachOwl dashboard, you’ll see a “Login” button
- Clicking this button opens the social media login via the extension
- This keeps the login within the same IP (proxy) — no mismatch, no risk
Benefits of This New Method
- More secure – Only one IP is used (your proxy), so no mismatches
- Smarter login – Everything happens within the ReachOwl ecosystem
- Less chance of blocks – Avoid triggering suspicious activity warnings
- Faster setup – No need to open tabs or log in manually
How to Use It (Quick Steps)
- Go to the ReachOwl Dashboard
- Click “Add Account”
- Make sure the ReachOwl Chrome Extension is installed
- Click “Login” next to the account type (Facebook/Instagram)
- Let the extension handle the login automatically

You’ll only need to install it once. After that, every login is smooth and secure via the extension.
