5 ways to see who blocked you on Instagram

Certainly! Here are five methods you can use to try to figure out if someone has put you on the block list:

1. Search for their profile: 

The simplest method is to search for the person’s Instagram profile using the search bar. They may have blocked you if their profile doesn’t appear in the search results.

2. Check mutual friends:

If you have mutual friends or followers with the targeted person, you can ask them to search for the user or check if they can see their posts. If your mutual friends can see the profile and posts, but you can’t, it’s a sign that you might be blocked.

3. Try direct messaging: 

Attempt to send the person a direct message. If you’ve been blocked, your messages won’t be delivered, and there won’t be any indication that the messages were read.

4. View their comments or likes: 

Visit a post where the person you suspect has blocked you has commented or liked. If you can’t see their activity on that post, it’s another sign that you might be blocked.

5. Create a second account: 

You can create a second Instagram account using a different email address and search for the person in question. Finding their profile with the new account but not your original one strongly indicates that you’ve been blocked.

Please remember to use these methods carefully while determining if you’ve been blocked.
