Sure, let me try. The app now crashes upon log in. I need to remove it completely with 3rd party app like app zapper to remove all the configs before I can try again.

No need, just update ur tags on the web aws console

Oh, sorry. I dont understand the instructions very well. So I add a new tag with the access key as the name?

What about the value?

Every EC2 instance has this thing called tags. Tags are just a list key value pairs u can give to most aws things. Usually the most common tag is name tag. Go to your EC2 console, just give ur instances a name.

In the launch wizard when u re launching a new instance, it gives u an option to set tags, just type in "Name" for key and "my instance" for value. U can either do that. Or after launching when it lists all ur instances u can just give ur instance a name in the first column
