Wandering about Instagram, you have found a very interesting profile to follow. However, the screen of action blocked Instagram the moment you pressed the button Follow. If you are looking for a way to try to solve, in this article we will try to find out together what are the causes of this and the possible solutions to be implemented to eliminate the problem.
Instagram blocked action: the causes
Exactly the June 4 2019, the developers of the popular social platform have updated the algorithm of the software by going to limit actions that can be done every hour, day and month.
In simple terms, it will no longer be possible to carry out many actions in a given period of time as it happened before. This limitation applies both if these actions are carried out manually or by using a specific one muzzle.
Therefore, if you go to overcome the new limits imposed by Instagram, will come automatically limit actions that can be done in that specific period of time. In addition to photos, comments and likes, some users have reported the inability to view the stories.
In the end, therefore, we can summarize the cause of this block due to exceeding the limit of actions allowed by Instagram in that hour, day, week or month. If you perform the same action (eg follow someone) from two different accesses (you manually and from the bot), the block is automatically applied.
In any case, the unlocking of the blocked actions takes place automatically after 24/48 hours, although some had to wait more than a week. The reason for this could be the exceeding of the number of weekly shares. Obviously, you will not run any risk of account termination for this reason, it will only be necessary to wait a few days before returning to fully use your profile.
Instagram action blocked: the solutions
To try to solve this problem, unfortunately you cannot use a particular button or simply contact the assistance of the photographic social network. However, there are some solutions which can help you unlock one or more actions in the shortest possible time, without waiting too long.
If you use a bot and you have done some actions manually while it was operating, then we advise you to disconnect the profile from the bot, change the password or completely delete the Instagram account from the platform that manages it.
Once this is done, wait at least a week without taking any action (so follow someone, leave a like or comment on a post) that has been blocked by Instagram. If you try to take an action to see if it is still locked, the restriction will continue.
After 7 days, connect the Instagram profile to the bot and activate it to perform the previously blocked actions. In case of failure, we suggest you repeat the steps again and wait a few more days until everything is restored.
If you don't use a botInstead, you have most likely posted several comments, left more likes than usual and followed more profiles in a few moments. This led to the freezing of the shares. In this case, it is absolutely necessary not to repeat the action or actions blocked by Instagram, wait at least 5 days in a row and then try again. If it fails, wait a few more days.
