How can I see someone’s profile who blocked me on Instagram?

Answered by Willian Lymon

To see someone’s profile who has blocked you on Instagram, you can try accessing their profile through the web version of Instagram on a mobile or desktop browser. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

1. Launch any mobile or desktop browser: Open the browser on your device, whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, or computer.

2. Enter the Instagram website: Type “www.instagram.com” in the address bar of the browser and hit enter.

3. Enter the username: After accessing the Instagram website, enter the username of the person you suspect has blocked you in the following format: “www.instagram.com/username”. Replace “username” with the actual username of the person you want to view.

4. Check the profile visibility: If you can see their profile on the browser, it indicates that they have indeed blocked you on Instagram. However, if you cannot see their profile, there are two possibilities. The person may have blocked you, or they might have deleted their Instagram account.

By following these steps, you can use the web version of Instagram to check if someone has blocked you. If their profile is visible on the browser but not on the Instagram app, it’s likely that they have blocked you. On the other hand, if you cannot see their profile even on the web, it could mean they have deleted their account.

It’s important to note that even if you can access someone’s profile through the web version, you will still be restricted from interacting with their content or sending them messages. Blocking on Instagram is designed to prevent unwanted contact and maintain privacy between users.
