How To Get Unblocked On Instagram:
If you have blocked someone on Instagram that person can neither send you a DM nor tag you in any of the posts.
You can try the following methods to get unblocked on Instagram:
1. Changing Email ID
To unblock yourself from someone’s Instagram account, all you need to do is create a new Instagram account. The email ID associated with this new Instagram account must be valid and different from your previously registered email ID.
You can simply proceed by adding a new account to your existing Instagram app using this new email ID. Just tap on your profile photo in the bottom right corner, then tap on the three horizontal bars at the top right corner of your screen. Select the ‘Settings’ option, scroll down, and tap on the ‘Add Account’ option. Use a new email ID and submit it.
2. Change the Username
When creating a new account, the first step is to select a username for your new Instagram account.
Ensure that this username is unique and distinct from your previous Instagram account.
Changing the username is a crucial step to ensure when creating a new Instagram profile, especially if your previous account has been blocked.
Remember to change your username after creation so that the new account can be associated with the chosen username.
3. Create the Account with Previous ID
After creating a new Instagram account with a new email ID and username, the next step is to transfer the account username to the previous one.
Once added, you’ll observe that multiple accounts have been added, including your current and previous accounts. From your new account, you can find the person who has blocked you.
4. Change Username to Previous One
After creating a new Instagram account with a new username and email ID, you might wonder if you can add your previous username from the old account to the new one.
Yes, you can change your username at any time, provided that the desired username is available for use. However, you can only revert to your previous username if it is not already in use by another account.
The primary reason for changing your username is to maintain consistency and appear in other people’s searches. This is important because your username may be associated with other social media accounts or used by someone else.
To change your username, simply navigate to your Instagram profile page and select the ‘Edit Profile’ option. From there, you can change your username back to the previous one if desired.
5. Send Person Request
Once you’ve finished creating a new Instagram account with a new email ID and username, and you’ve changed back to your previous username, the next step is to ensure that you’re unblocked on someone’s Instagram account.
To do this, you need to send a follow request to the person who blocked your previous Instagram account. Simply search for them using the search bar within the app on your new Instagram account, and then send a follow request.
6. You’re Now Unblocked
If you’ve already sent a follow request from your new Instagram account using your previous username, all you need to do is wait for the person to accept your request.
Once the person accepts your request, you can once again view their posts that were previously hidden from you when you were blocked.
Additionally, you can send them direct messages, make calls, and video chat with them on Instagram.
If you can perform all these functions using your new Instagram account with your previous username, it indicates that you are no longer blocked.
