Here’s my take on this.
From what I’ve seen, these claims usually work in one of two ways, and neither involves magically bypassing Instagram’s security.
The most common method is through monitoring software installed on the device itself. This software can capture keystrokes, effectively recording the password when the user types it in. Some advanced tools might also be able to pull data directly from the app’s activity logs or take screenshots. In this case, you aren’t breaking into the account from the outside; you’re monitoring it from the inside.
Another approach involves leveraging the “Forgot Password” function. If a monitoring tool grants you access to the associated email account or text messages, you can initiate a password reset and intercept the recovery link or code. It’s less about a direct login and more about gaining control through the recovery process.
