To check someone&#8217;s Activity Status, you must be following them and have the &#8220;public&#8221; activity status. If you do not have this status, you should go to their profile and click on the&#8217;message&#8217; option. You should see the last active time underneath the person&#8217;s name. If you don&#8217;t see the &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; on their profile, it means that the person isn&#8217;t following you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Troubleshoot_Instagram\"><\/span>Troubleshoot Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Having a hard time keeping up with your friends on Instagram? There are a few things you can do to fix the problem. First, try rebooting your phone. If the problem persists, try updating the app or downloading it from the app store. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app may also fix the problem. Try all the troubleshooting steps listed below and see if they work.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re unable to see a user&#8217;s activity on Instagram, check their profile to see if the account has been deactivated. Generally, users can only see the top 25 people in their list. Sometimes, there are glitches on Instagram that prevent users from seeing the active status of a user. If you don&#8217;t see their profile photo, check their profile picture and try to unblock them. Otherwise, you can try to message them on a different account. Keep in mind, this won&#8217;t work if the account is private.<\/p>\n<p>If your friend&#8217;s activity status is disabled, try enabling it again. Sometimes, this can be a temporary problem due to a software glitch. If it doesn&#8217;t fix the problem, try restarting your device. If all else fails, try chatting with your friend in private. If you can&#8217;t see their profile, then it is likely because they are blocked or disabled. These are both temporary issues, and will require some troubleshooting.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fix_a_problem_with_not_seeing_someones_Activity_Status\"><\/span>Fix a problem with not seeing someone&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you&#8217;re using Instagram, you may notice that someone&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; is not showing up. You&#8217;ve sent them Direct messages, but you can&#8217;t see their posts in your feed. It might sound like they&#8217;ve blocked you, but this isn&#8217;t the case. Thankfully, there are a few ways to fix this problem and restore their Activity Status.<\/p>\n<p>First, try to find out what is preventing you from seeing the &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; of the person you&#8217;re trying to message. If you&#8217;ve recently chatted with this person, they probably haven&#8217;t changed their status. If they haven&#8217;t updated their status since you last talked to them, try looking up the date of their last activity in your direct message thread.<\/p>\n<p>Second, you can&#8217;t see the &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; of those who are beyond 25 on your direct message list. However, you can change this setting to &#8220;disable Last Active&#8221; and allow other people to see your activity status. This will ensure that only the most active 25 users can see the status of someone else. However, if you&#8217;re not able to see someone&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; on Instagram, you can still see their Last Active Date.<\/p>\n<p>The second way to fix the problem of not seeing someone&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status?&#8221; on Instagram is to turn off the feature. Go to the user&#8217;s account page and tap on the three black lines. Next, tap on &#8220;Settings.&#8221; You&#8217;ll see different options related to your Instagram account. From there, select &#8220;Privacy&#8221; and then &#8220;Activity Status.&#8221; Once you&#8217;ve checked this option, you can toggle it on and off. If you&#8217;re on the &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; feature, the toggle will turn green or white.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turn_off_Instagrams_Activity_Status\"><\/span>Turn off Instagram&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to disable the &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; on Instagram, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. There&#8217;s a way to turn off the feature in the Instagram app without letting your friends know that you&#8217;re online. This will allow you to respond to DMs at your own pace and not worry about your social media presence creeping up on others. It will also prevent your followers from seeing your last seen photos.<\/p>\n<p>To turn off Instagram&#8217;s &#8220;Activity Status,&#8221; go to Settings &gt; Privacy. From there, choose &#8220;Show activity status&#8221; and turn it off. It will no longer display the last time you logged into the Instagram app. This feature is on by default. You can turn off &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; on your PC, iPhone, and Android. It will take you a few seconds, but you&#8217;ll notice that your followers won&#8217;t be able to see your last activity.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; feature allows you to track the activity of users in your network without having to be notified of them. However, this feature has many problems, including delays, glitches, and inaccurate updates. For instance, you may be notified that someone was watching your video ten minutes ago but it was actually 20 minutes ago. You might also not be able to see other people&#8217;s activity status because you&#8217;re muting yourself from the app.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MMmLNbTB7nE\" width=\"536\" height=\"300\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to See When Someone Was Last Active on Instagram If you are following someone, you can check their &#8220;Activity Status&#8221; to see when they were last active.
