Yes, I did.

I’ve tested accounts that lifted the block and tried to follow again. Two accs I tried at the same day got blocked after 1 and 10 follows.

The two I’ve waited 48h still working with 50-70 follows per day (warming up)

Would you guess that’s could be because your restarted when your account had possibly only just dipped below the new rolling limit? So you fell foul of the rule again? Would be interested to know when your second block lifts.

The same! Blocked after just following two, curious when it would be lifted…

Yes! And one of them was blocked (again) have 2 days, I’m guessing it will be lifted today. The other one was blocked again minutes before the message here(5:00AM lisbon time) so let’s see.

I’ll keep you guys updated, but for now I can see the blocks are not 24 hours any more.

I strongly advise to not start following right back after the block lifted, wait 24-72h and restart following warming up(extremely slow, better few then nothing). All the other tools you can leave turned on without any problems at all. For now is working and is important to mention that some accounts that got follow block on 4th june I’ve only stopped the follow tool, started to unfollow and all the other tools was turned on and they got back(lifted follow block) as the ones that was fully stopped.

Also ask your clients to not follow anyone after the block lifted, if they tested and the follow is working, stop there, no more testing, no more follows for at least 24h.

Already 20 accounts have been unlocked a week ago.
I am waiting a week and only starting :slight_smile: It will be safer.
For now, there are 14 accounts and everything is ok :slight_smile: On the old proxy.
Today I gave 15+ more follow.

Tomorrow I will add some love to the last post and I wonder if I should also add watching instastories, or let it go away for now?

Hey I have a question for people that are earning on Mass Follow, did you decrease the prices for your clients because of the new limits or are you charging them the same price when there was 800-1000 limit a day and now?

Silly question but how can i tell how many follows in last 30 days / see when limit may be lifted?

I’ve been watching this thread very closely and doing some tests of my own. I’m a fairly experienced Jarvee user and have been using automation in general for about 5 years or so and I’ve never seen something like this - where across the board of service offerings we are seeing repercussions, even on sites like wholesaleSMM who aren’t directly linked.

What I can say for sure is:

  1. There is no quick trick to lifting the follow ban 100% of the time
  2. Some of my follow bans seem permanent while others have lifted and then been reiterated. This makes sense as no two accounts in existence are doing identical actions. This makes me believe that there are systems in place causing these bans - systems that measure data in a more complex manner than 6000 follows per time period.
  3. Almost everyone using automation software is blocked whereas only a very small percentage of people who aren’t using software are.
  4. Instagram has not even publicly acknowledged all their recent outages or these activity blocks.
  5. Nobody has come to a legitimate conclusion as to whether this is permanent or not.
  6. I have addressed serious and pressing issues with Instagram support in the past and have not received responses 4 months later.
  7. and most notably This goes beyond Instagram. I tried to send a friend a few word documents on Facebook the other day and immediately got action blocked even though I’ve probably sent 5 documents on Facebook in the past year. This is on an account that has never been automated or blocked, and that has never even slightly abused any action.
  8. I’m still being followed by random accounts on Instagram that are clearly automating, so there seems to be some kind of threshold or blocking point that has a lot more to do with a combination of factors; i.e. type of device ID, tapping and scrolling, microphone and camera activity, IP age, device ID age, perhaps even external data to Instagram etc. - as well as how these actions correlate to number of basic actions taken and API calls made.

My conclusion:

This could be a serious issue that will last many months if not permanently. I doubt it’s purely some kind of coding error or glitch as it coincided with the recent update too closely. it was most likely a result of the update, whether it was their intention to screw us all so precisely or not, as well as the others who were blocked or locked out of their accounts.

What I did notice while testing various reinstall methods is that not a single person has complained on the appstore. There are at least 100 people on this site viewing this thread. If every single person writes a detailed 1 star review on the app page we can legitimately wake them up into fixing the problem. Nobody is blogging about these problems except one or two small individuals or outlets. Instagram is going to do nothing to resolve these issues if nobody speaks up publicly about them. It’s all good and well us discussing among ourselves, but more people need to air their opinion publicly. I know I certainly will be!

Everyone posting theories on here about the 6000 follow limit over 30 days are obviously amateur Instagram users! They have either seen this theory on some other forum or they are using the bot software completely WRONG!

Here’s a fact for everyone to think about before listening to these to called testing professionals! :man_facepalming:t3: The issues we are all having came from the Instagram updates. These updates did not happen 30 days ago and In fact was just over a week ago since the updates started. So people putting a 6000 follow cap over 30 days haven’t got evidence for this, it’s IMPOSSIBLE to have this information when it hasn’t even been 30 days yet!

The 6000 follow limit is most likely true, it’s been tested however we do not know the time period yet. It could be 10 days, 14 days, 20 days, 30 days, we do not know the answers yet because it’s been just over a week since the updates.

We do know Instagram are currently testing anti automation algorithms hence why we are having so many Instagram updates and problems, but guys this isn’t new they have been doing this for a LONG time now.

We will not know the 100% facts till 2 months of testing, however there is also a chance of everything going back to normal.

This happens almost every year, you would know this if you know your stuff.
