It’s understandable to be curious about changes in your follower count on Instagram, whether you’re a content creator or a casual user. Regrettably, Instagram doesn’t provide notifications when someone decides to unfollow you. However, there are ways to determine who unfollowed you on Instagram if you follow the right steps. Let’s explore how you can check if your friends are still following you or not.
Manually Checking Who Unfollowed You on Instagram
There are methods to discover if someone has unfollowed you on Instagram. The manual approach involves checking the person’s profile to confirm if they’re still following you. However, it can be cumbersome, especially if you’re not sure who might have unfollowed you. Another option involves using third-party applications designed to track unfollowers on Instagram, providing a more detailed and recent overview of who has unfollowed your account.
In this section, let’s explore the manual method to identify an unfollower on Instagram. Follow these steps:
1. Launch the Instagram app on your Android or iOS device and head to your profile.
2. Tap on the follower count displayed at the top of your profile.
3. Then, select the search bar to manually look for specific followers you suspect may have unfollowed you.
4. If they do not appear in the search results, it indicates that they have unfollowed you.
You can employ the steps mentioned earlier to identify followers and then remove them from your account. Simply search for the account and tap on the “Remove” button next to their name to eliminate them from your followers list.
