There are several ways to find out if someone has blocked your account. You can look for your account in the search bar and see if you&#8217;ve been blocked or not. However, Instagram doesn&#8217;t send out notifications when you&#8217;ve been blocked. To find out more, visit the Insider Tech Reference library to learn more stories and tips.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_tell_if_youve_been_blocked_on_Instagram\"><\/span>How to tell if you&#8217;ve been blocked on Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have been banned from Instagram, you may wonder how to tell if you&#8217;ve been blocked. First, check the profile page of the person you&#8217;ve been blocked by. It will have a number of posts and followers at the top, as well as basic information. If your profile is blank, you probably have been blocked by that person. If this is the case, you probably don&#8217;t want to follow them.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to check whether you&#8217;ve been blocked is to search for the person in question on another account. To do this, go to your account&#8217;s Discover tab, then type in their username. If their profile is public, you&#8217;ll see a blue &#8220;Follow&#8221; button or a &#8220;No Posts Yet&#8221; icon. However, if they&#8217;ve blocked you, their profile will be missing either of these icons.<\/p>\n<p>You can also try searching the Explore page to find out if a user has blocked you. Unfortunately, Instagram does not notify users when someone blocks them, and third-party tools often fail to work. If you want to find out for sure, your best bet is to do some detective work and see if you can locate their account. There may be a corresponding story on the Explore page, but you will need to dig deeper to find out if the person has blocked you.<\/p>\n<p>Although Instagram does not have a direct way to determine if a user has blocked them, you can discover if they&#8217;ve blocked you by blocking them again. To do this, go to the profile of the person who blocked you. Click on the three dots next to their name, and select &#8216;Unblock&#8217;. Once you&#8217;ve unblocked a person, you can see their account.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/W8JfcQAwk0Q\" height=\"287\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"514\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Tell If You Have Been Blocked on Instagram You might be wondering how you can tell if your Instagram account has been blocked.
