New Instagram Update that Stops Spam Accounts Following You
Instagram has introduced a new spam filter that will stop spam accounts AKA bots from following your account!
Once the filter is switched on, any account suspected to be a fake follower will need your permission to follow you.
Fake followers have been a constant annoyance for far too long so this is a feature that I think EVERYONE will love!
It’s super simple and takes less than a minute to do.
You can either watch this reel which shows you how to do it or follow the simple steps listed below:
How to turn it on:
▪️ Tap the 3 lines at the top right of your profile
▪️ Tap ‘Settings & Privacy’
▪️ Scroll down to the ‘How others interact with you’ section
▪️ Tap ‘Follow & invite friends’
▪️ Switch the ‘Filter spam followers’ toggle ON.
Tap the 3 lines at the top of your profile
In setting and privacy scroll down to the ‘How others interact with you’ and tap ‘Follow and invite friends’
Switch the ‘Filter spam followers filter’ on
You can finally wave goodbye fake followers 👋.
Hallelujah 🙌
