The creation of this file may take a while. Instagram will notify you when it’s ready and it will also appear in the “Download Your Information” section.
Once the file is downloaded to your phone and unzipped (the process is straightforward on both iPhone and Android), navigate to the last file labeled with your followers, like “followers_5” for the oldest ones.
Inside, you’ll find a list of your followers. Clicking on any handle will redirect you to their Instagram profile within the app.
Here’s what to look for:
- The date of their last post. Remember, some might have old pinned posts, so scrolling through the first six posts is advisable.
- The number of accounts they follow.
- Shared activity, which is accessible even for private accounts. This lets you see mutual interactions such as likes and comments.
