I was having the same issue, but I just logged in Via web and mobile, get a message that there were some suspicious logins, I clicked that everything was Ok, after that I try running the app again and it works just good.

For normal challenges (like "we noticed automated behavior" etc), you can bypass like

if (loginResult.NeedsChallenge)
{
    await api.AcceptChallengeAsync();
}

But if account got suspended or locked, it won't work.

Still getting this issue. Even when using this code below.

if (loginResult.NeedsChallenge)
{
await api.AcceptChallengeAsync();
}

Error = User Must Be authenticated.

I log into the instagram account and click on (This was Me). After I can login on the browser. But the app will still not work. Images wont upload to instagram.
