How do you see who blocked me on Instagram?

Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to tell who specifically has blocked you on Instagram. However, if you suspect someone has blocked you, there are a few ways you can confirm your suspicions.

The first thing to check is the person’s profile. If you are unable to find a profile, it can be an indication that you’ve been blocked. Additionally, you can try searching for the profile through the search bar.

If the profile doesn’t appear, then it’s possible you’ve been blocked.

Another way to check is to search for posts that the person has made, or you have interacted with in the past. If those posts (or comments) no longer appear, then it could be an indication that you have been blocked.

Finally, if someone has removed you from their list of followers, then it is likely they have blocked you. Even if the person’s profile appears in the search, it may be that you’ve been blocked from seeing certain posts and stories on their profile.

Unfortunately, Instagram does not provide any way for you to confirm that you’ve been blocked, so you’ll have to rely on the clues mentioned above to determine the truth.

What does it look like when someone’s blocked you?

When someone has blocked you, they have essentially cut off all communication with you. You will no longer receive messages, calls, or notifications from that person, and they won’t be able to see any of your profile information when they search for your account.

Depending on the platform, there are usually a few different ways to tell if someone has blocked you. If you’re sending messages and they never appear to be delivered, that may be a sign that the other person has blocked you.

On some apps, their profile picture may be replaced with a placeholder image or nothing at all. On social media sites, you will typically no longer be able to view their profile and posts in the same way that you used to.

If the person who has blocked you follows the same people or is in the same groups that you are, you may be able to tell when their posts appear but not see them on your own feeds. These are all subtle but common signs that someone has blocked you, but the only way to be sure is to simply ask them.
