Instagram app and browser version not working properly

Hey guys. It’s now been a while since I have noticed that the instagram app itself does not work properly. It is as if it is not calibrated properly?
I have tried uninstalling it and installing it again. Both on in android and ois. But honestly on both platforms it seems buggy. On android the video play does not work everytime, you have to “tilt” the post every now and then for it to start. On ois I have noticed that liking and enlarging pictures can fail and you have to try several times. Pictures and post seem out of proportions.
Viewing stories sometimes end up with me hearing the audio of the video but the video itself is not present. I witness the app shutting down suddently. I have also experienced pages and profiles being unable to load on the Browser version on IG.

This have made me wonder all these issues and errors we are experiencing with automation, may also be related to these bugs on IG platform itself. I am almost certain that all these latest changes on the platform itself has made the enviroment buggy. Both on the IG app and the Browser I noticed an extra layer of delay before a page or post loads. Honestly it’s like experiencing as if your request is going through layers of filters before you reach the destination.

Just wanted to know if any of you have witnessed any of this?

I haven’t had these problems myself, but I have had this infuriating issue where the app will just send me to my home page while I’m trying to f/u, comment or like. Starting to wonder if this is just insta trying to discourage automation-like actions.

What you mention is exactly what I experience lately, when doing manual interactions. While liking, commenting, following or unfollowing, suddently the app jumps back to the homepage. And this has not only happened once, it happens quite often.

To be honest I am starting to think that the algo somehow is programmed to do this, when sniffing someone is doing automation look alike actions on the app.

recently on IG app on mobile – the feed does not refresh, you have to manually refresh it. Might be a bug, might be the app now as standard. This could also explain why ER is in the toilet now.

The feed had issues for some of my accounts (and client accounts) for the last 2 weeks. The following week,the affected accounts feeds started working and other accounts that were previously working stopped loading feeds. Now this week most accounts are working.

It looks like a server issue to me
