People who follow you on Instagram are usually interested in the content you post and want to engage with you. You can tell if someone follows you as you'll see them watching your Stories, joining your Lives and leaving likes or comments on your posts. But sometimes, especially as your Instagram following grows, you may not tell which profiles follow/unfollow you.
If you want to know who doesn't follow you back on Instagram, we're sharing a few tips and tricks to help you out!
How to see who doesn't follow you back on Instagram
Instagram doesn't show you a list of people who unfollowed you. They only show you 50 accounts that you've least interacted with. However, there are several ways to check if someone unfollowed you or doesn't follow you back on Instagram.
Method #1: Look at your Followers list
You can search for an Instagram account name search and see if this profile is part of your Followers list.
How to see who doesn't follow you back:
- Go to your Instagram profile
- Tap on "Followers"
- Search any Instagram account name to see if they follow you
- If the name appears it means they follow you back
- If you can't find them, there's a high chance they aren't following you back
Method #2: Do a manual Following check
Another method is to visit their profile and see if they follow you back.
How to manually check if an Instagram account follows you:
- Go to their Instagram profile
- Look at the "Follow/Following" button
- If the button shows "Follow back" it means this account follows you back
- If the button shows "Follow" it means this account doesn't follow you back
Tip: If the button under their profile bio shows "Following", you need to unfollow them first and then you'll be able to see the "Follow back/Follow" options.
