Hey everyone,
So, I’ve been stuck with this "follow feedback required instagram" thing for a couple of days now. 😩 Every time I try to follow someone, it pops up and won’t let me proceed. Super annoying, right?
Has anyone else dealt with this? I’ve tried logging out and back in, clearing cache, and even reinstalling the app, but no luck. Some folks online said it might be a temporary restriction, but it’s been a while now.
If you’ve fixed this, pls share how! Did you just wait it out, or is there a trick I’m missing?
Thanks in advance! 🙏
Hey! I had the same "follow feedback required instagram" issue last week. It’s so frustrating, right?
What worked for me was just waiting it out for about 48 hours. I stopped trying to follow anyone during that time and avoided any activity that might trigger the restriction again.
Also, I read somewhere that using third-party apps or bots can cause this, so if you’ve used any, maybe unlink them? Hope this helps!
ugh, the "follow feedback required instagram" thing is the worst! I dealt with it a while back and it drove me nuts.
I fixed it by logging into Instagram on a browser (not the app) and clearing all my recent follows/unfollows. Then I waited like 24 hours and it was gone.
If that doesn’t work, maybe try contacting Instagram support? They’re slow but sometimes they help. Good luck!
Yo, I had this issue too! The "follow feedback required instagram" message is usually a temp restriction.
What I did was:
- Stop following/unfollowing for a day or two.
- Made sure I wasn’t using any sketchy third-party apps.
- Cleared my app data (not just cache) and reinstalled.
It cleared up after that. If it doesn’t, maybe check out sites like DownDetector to see if it’s a wider issue.
Hey! I’ve seen this "follow feedback required instagram" thing before. It’s usually Instagram’s way of saying you’re following/unfollowing too fast.
I’d suggest taking a break from following anyone for a bit. Also, make sure your account is linked to a legit email and phone number. Sometimes that helps.
If you’re still stuck, try using a tool like IGLeads or IG Audit to check if your account has any weird activity. Good luck!
Thanks so much for all the suggestions, everyone! I tried logging out of all devices and cleared my app data like some of you said. Still no luck, but I’ll wait it out for a couple of days and see.
Quick question though—has anyone had this "follow feedback required instagram" thing last longer than a week? I’m starting to worry it’s not just a temp restriction.
Also, I’ve never used any third-party apps, so that’s not the issue. Thanks again for all the help! 🙏
Omg, the "follow feedback required instagram" thing is so annoying! I had it for like 3 days.
What worked for me was:
- Logging out of all devices (even the web version).
- Changing my password.
- Not touching the app for a full day.
After that, it was gone. Maybe give that a shot? Also, avoid following too many people at once in the future.
Hey! I’ve been through the "follow feedback required instagram" mess too. It’s usually a temp ban for suspicious activity.
I’d recommend:
- Not following/unfollowing anyone for 24-48 hours.
- Checking if you’ve used any third-party tools (like auto-follow apps).
- If it’s still there, try reaching out to Instagram support through the app.
Also, I found this site called FixThePhoto that has some tips for Instagram issues. Might be worth a look!
