You cannot see who views your Instagram profile directly. Instagram does not provide a feature that shows the list of people who have visited your profile
. This is a privacy measure by Instagram. However, there are some ways to get partial insights:
- Instagram Stories : You can see exactly who viewed your Instagram Stories while they are live. By tapping your Story and swiping up, you get a list of viewers, including those who do not follow you
- Video Posts : You can see the total number of views on your videos, but not the specific viewers' names. You can see who liked the video but not who just watched it
- Instagram Insights (for Business or Creator accounts) : You can view aggregated data such as total profile visits, reach (unique accounts that saw your content), and views (number of times content was seen, including multiple views by the same user). These insights do not reveal individual profile visitors but provide useful metrics on your audience engagement and content performance
- Third-Party Apps : Some apps like Influxy or Stalker claim to show who viewed your profile or stories. However, these apps are unofficial, may violate Instagram’s terms, and their accuracy and privacy are questionable
Summary
What You Can See| What You Cannot See
---|---
Who viewed your Instagram Stories| Who viewed your Instagram profile
Total views on your videos| Names of people who viewed your videos
Aggregated profile visits and reach via Insights (business accounts)| Specific
profile visitors
Likes and comments on posts| Profile visitors who did not interact
In short, Instagram only allows you to see who viewed your Stories and provides aggregate insights for your profile and posts but does not reveal the identities of all profile visitors
