 * Hello, we recently started trying Nelio on our page and now connected Instagram
   via Buffer. After the first few posts using the connection, I see that about 
   50% succeeded and 50% failed with a message from Buffer.com:
 * > “One of your updates failed to post. Buffer needs a mobile device to publish
   > your posts to Instagram. Please sign into the mobile app using your email address&
   > password to connect your device and then retry the post.”
 * Any idea why this is happening sometimes?

 * Unfortunately, that’s an issue with Buffer. It looks like they’ve lost connection
   with your mobile device. To help re-link it with your Buffer account, could you
   sign out of the Buffer mobile app and then sign back in with the email address
   that’s linked to your Buffer account? That should do the trick.
