If you’re wondering if someone has blocked you on Instagram, there are a few ways to find out. Here are the most common methods:
Check your direct messages
If you can’t find a conversation with someone you know you were talking to, it’s possible that they have blocked you. However, there are other reasons why a conversation might disappear, so this isn’t a foolproof method.
Search for their profile
If you can’t find someone’s profile when you search for it, it’s likely that they have blocked you. However, it’s also possible that they have deactivated their account or changed their username.
Look for their posts in hashtags
If you follow someone and you can’t see their posts in hashtags that you know they typically use, it’s possible that they have blocked you. However, it’s also possible that they have changed their privacy settings so that their posts are only visible to their followers.
Ask a mutual friend
If you have a mutual friend, you can ask them if they can see the person’s profile and posts. If they can, then it’s likely that you have been blocked.
Use a third-party app
There are a number of third-party apps that claim to be able to tell you if someone has blocked you on Instagram. However, these apps are often unreliable and may even be scams. We don’t recommend using them.
What to do if you’ve been blocked
If you find out that someone has blocked you on Instagram, there’s not much you can do about it. The person has made the decision to cut off contact with you, and you have to respect their wishes.
However, if you believe that you have been blocked in error, you can try contacting the person directly to see if you can resolve the issue. You can also try sending them a direct message, but if they have blocked you, they won’t be able to see it.
