Can Instagram Follow requests expire?
Follow requests on Instagram don’t expire at all. They just sit there in a pending state until they’re touched, which can be a problem if you’re applying any kind of follow/unfollow strategy since those pending follows are counted towards the total # of people you can follow.
How do you stop bots on Instagram?
To block a bot account, visit the bot’s profile then click the three dots on the upper-right corner of the screen. Click “block.” This will block the account and consequently remove it from your followers list. When you block the account, it can’t find your profile, posts, or Stories, and it can’t follow you again.
Why is Instagram restricting the number of people I follow?
It happens when you follow too many people within a short time. Instagram will think you’re abusing the follow function and will, therefore, restrict it for a couple of hours. Edit: I wanted to add that the limits for how many people you can follow per day or per hour keep changing with every new update that Instagram rolls out.
What happens when someone requests to follow you on Instagram?
Be aware however that when someone requests to follow you, the “Follow” button on your profile changes to “Requesting”. Once you denied their request, this button will change back to “Follow”. If they pay attention to your profile, they will be able to find out that you denied their request.
Should I allow my son to follow people on Instagram?
Posting a comment on a picture that has a popular hashtag that is targeted by spam bots can quickly trigger an inappropriate follow request by a spam bot. Consider carefully who you allow your son to follow. We recommend that teenagers only follow people with whom they maintain an offline relationship.
Why are my followers not showing up on my Instagram page?
1st. You have made your account public ( Even for 1 sec ) all your followers request will get accepted at once automatically by Instagram and they will no longer appear in the follow request category but will appear as your followers now. There is nothing you can do about this.
