It is a well-known fact that you can not make friends with everyone and be in good relationships with all people. As lots of communication is taking part online nowadays, this rule is fair for Instagram, Facebook, and other social media platforms as well. Thus, it is completely natural and common for someone to block you or hide their page from you. What to do if you still need to access their page? Luckily, there are methods: view private Instagram, fake accounts, friend’s help, etc. Let’s discuss how to view blocked Instagram accounts in more detail.
Solve the Issue Peacefully
In our opinion, the first thing everyone should do if they are blocked is solve the problem directly and peacefully. The person who blocks you probably knows you personally or is somehow connected to you. Try to contact that person directly to clarify what happened. If they are closed to communication, ask your common friends to help you fix your relationships.
Why is it important? Well, finding ways to bypass problems is a good skill, but if there is a chance to eliminate a problem at the very beginning – why not? If you solve all the issues personally and convince the person to unblock you, there will be no need to look for any methods or scaffolding to access a page you are not supposed to.
Create a Fake Account
One of the easiest and most popular ways to view someone’s Instagram account after you have been blocked is to create a new page (some people call it fake). It makes sense, though, to make it not so obvious that the new page belongs to you, otherwise, it will get blocked very fast as well. Here are some recommendations on how to create a new page specifically to view a profile that has already blocked your other page.
- Use an email other than the one for registering the blocked page. If you use the same email address, the new page will also be blocked.
- Create a realistic-looking name. People often get suspicious of profiles with generic names or random words (like NiceGuy65). Obviously, you should not use any names or variations that can be easily linked with you because, in this case, your new page will be quickly blocked as well.
- Add a picture. Users do not trust pages without a profile picture. Preferably, it should be a photo of a person. You can use your friend’s or relative’s photo, but ensure that it is not someone the person who blocked you knows personally.
- Add content to the page. A blank page without pictures or posts looks suspicious and can be considered a fake or bot page, which can also get blocked. Ideally, you need to create a new personality with their own life, friends, and images.
When you are ready, follow the target profile. You can start monitoring the content posted there or even communicate with them. Just make sure they do not guess who it really is.
Use a Page Viewing Service
The easiest way how to view blocked Instagram accounts is to use a special anonymous service like Glassagrm. This app is fully online and is not connected to Instagram itself in any way. This means you do not need to create a fake page or link Glassagrm to an existing one. The only thing you should provide to start using it is the link or the name of the target page. It allows viewing not only public accounts but also private ones. The service really works and has positive feedback from real users on Trustpilot and Reddit.
When you set up an account and provide the information for the page you want to access – things become very simple.
- You need to log into your Glassagrm account to access your online dashboard.
- You can switch between the tabs on the menu to view different types of content, such as posts, likes, stories, and profile pictures.
- After you click on a specific piece of content, you will see the Download button at the bottom right. This button does what it says: it downloads the chosen piece to your device in its original quality.
It is also important to mention that all the content is stored in your profile for three months after it appears there. The updates take place regularly, so you will see all the latest content a person adds to their profile. It all happens anonymously and without any interaction with the original content on Insta, so the profile owner will not get any hints that they are being observed.
Ask a Friend for Help
If none of the above fits your needs – ask a friend for help. Use their page to view that profile that has blocked you. In this case, the page owner will be notified if you view their stories, and they will see the name if you leave comments, but it will be your friend’s name. Of course, the page owner can get suspicious if a person who has never interacted with them before suddenly starts texting them or viewing their stories; if they see your original page on your friend’s friend list – they might have a hunch and ban this page as well, that is why it is better to hide it or even set the page into private mode.
Conclusion
Undoubtedly, it is not very pleasant when someone blocks your page on Instagram. However, when they do so, they do not know about Glassagrm. This service allows you to anonymously view all the content on any page – private, public, or the one that blocked your original Instagram account. Alternatively, you can create a fresh IG page or use your friend’s account, but these methods are not as reliable, and the fake pages can be blocked as well should your target become suspicious about them.
