Is it possible to view a private Instagram account?
People are often trying to find a way to view a private Instagram account, but is that even possible? The simple answer to the question is: no, you can’t view a private Instagram account without following the user. In 2020 there are a few ways to view any private Instagram profile. Below, we will show you a couple ways!
1. Send a follow request
This is the easiest way to get access to a private Instagram profile. It pretty much explains itself, but if you’re new to Instagram, you’re probably not familiar with this. If a profile is private, you won’t be able to see their posts. To see the posts, you have to request a follow. Once the user accepted your follow request, you will be able to view the profile.
Press the follow button & wait untill the user accepts your follow request
2. Create a new profile
We’re aware that a lot of people want to follow a private profile, so they can ‘spy’ on their posts & stories. Which means you don’t want to let the user know that you’re following him or her. Creating a new Instagram profile is a great way to view private profiles. By creating a new profile, make sure you have a believable photo of a real person & make it a good looking profile. To get the best chances of your target profile accepting your profile request, it’s helpful to get some followers. It makes your account looking legit.
3. Use third party software
There are companies who claim to have third party software, which allows you to view private profiles. We have never tried any third party software, so we can’t tell our experience. We don’t recommend to use one of them, because they look not safe. Some even ask to share your password with them, which you should never do.
Conclusion
Is it possible to view a private Instagram account? No, it’s not possible. Basically there are two options to view someones profile; use your personal account to follow the person or create a new account to request a follow from the targeted profile. Either way, the Instagram user has to accept your follow request, before you’re be able to view their content.
