  1. Log in to your SnapWidget account here

  2. Navigate to the widget you need to re-auth by selecting it from your dashboard.

  3. Click on the Username field or the Re-Auth Widget button.

  4. For Instagram, choose either "Sign in with Instagram" or "Sign in with Facebook" depending on your type of account.

  5. Sign in with your account and choose the correct profile if required.
