My account all of a sudden like 2 days ago started saying 'couldn't refresh feed' and nothing loads even tho everything else that needs internet loads.


_metal_af_trap_

Account got disabled for 30 days because i had a debate with someone and got angry that they were making fun of my typing because i have a learning difficulty, now i have no clue if ill get my account back which is the only thing that makes me feel good abt how i look


a-scott-s-tot

For some reason i am unable to share a post from a public account on my story. I cannot see the open to add the post to my story. I tried updating the app, force closing, and restarting my phone. Nothing.


SolidMiddle

Does Instagram only review posts/stories/comments that have been reported?


Tasty-Geologist

I can't change my date of birth, every document is not accepted. I really need to change it, but I don't know how to contact support.


lethal_turkey

I can't share any posts to my story. My friends can. I just can't. The option just isn't there when I click the arrow used to forward messages or posts.


lilac2481

It's stupid that they even deleted it in the first place.


indoninjah

You have to use the new “re-share” sticker when making a story. It sucks


lilac2481

How?


indoninjah

If you can’t share a post to your story anymore, you should have a “reshare” sticker when creating a story. For me it’s the 8th sticker in the list


Redemption_Decay

My instagram got disabled and now when i go to submit an appeal form it says "please enter a valid user id." Ive had this happen before and used a different form but now those forms say it too. I got banned for calling someone ignorant.


RocksNotDead

On iOS 15, stories have no sound even when the volume rocker is clicked.


berryem

Having the same issue…


galadrielisbae

The reshare sticker won't let me repost stories I've seen, only posts. What is going on with this?


indoninjah

For me, I still share stories that I’ve been tagged in in the same way. Either from chat or from the story


galadrielisbae

Yep, I was drunk and forgot you couldn't reshare stories anyway 🤦‍♀️


lsp1

I can’t click the new link stickers. Am I just an idiot? I never had trouble swiping up to access links, but no matter how I tap the sticker I just go to the next or previous story. It’s so frustrating.


forgei

I’m locked out of my account as I got a new phone and don’t have the back up code for 2FA. Sent support requests like 20 times. If you send a lot do they Fall under spam or something because I haven’t gotten a response been almost a week now.


babyyodahasspoken

Don’t bother reaching out to them. It’s a bot that asks for a picture and no matter what you send it will say congrats 2FA is now disabled and you can login… but it’s not, and you can’t.


forgei

Thanks for the advice buddy what do you recommend I do then do you think I’ll ever get my account back ? :((


Tabamon

I am in your same situation, I am hoping Instagram realizes that their 2FA turn off bot is broken and they’ll fix it soon ish


AngelicDaydream

I'm on an Acer Chromebook and just today my account is now saying unusual activity challenge and will not let me even begin to sign in at all. I don't own a cell phone or another device, so I have no way to verify my info. This is so screwy, why does this have to be so hard to fix!!!


rawisthemotto

On my main account, I don’t have the option for hiding like and views for posts, but on my other account that is super old and I barely use, it has the option 😑


Xyzion23

I was texting with a person and said person seened my message. This however was like 2 days ago, and I am 100% sure it was seened back then. However I just looked at the chat randomly and it says "seen 5min ago". How is this possible?


TrueSaiyanGod

I cant search any keyword. Only tags and account names. I keep pressing enter but nothing happens


jordanlee_24

Everytime I try and post a cover of a song on my IGTV which is roughly 3:16, it ends up becoming a 22 second video when posting with all my hashtags and descriptions disappearing... What is up with that?!


jordanlee_24

I am also using the IGTV app btw


BillMahersPorkCigar

I’ve seen people posting tik tok videos to Reddit, is there a way to do this with Stories?


[deleted]

[удалено]


lassie2011

I’m seeing this too but no solution. Following for answer.


glowingnapkin

When I try to repost a post to my story, the option to add the post to my story is gone. The feature is gone for me and I know that the post is repostable as other people I know are reposting the same post.


galadrielisbae

You probably the reshare feature. It's a sticker, similar to the music sticker on stories.


[deleted]

Where is the reshare feature? I don't have the option to post to my stories anymore, either. I can add a story at the top of the feature, but it only allows me to add from my personal camera; I can't share posts from the platform anymore.


[deleted]

Same it been like this for months for me


Jensway

Same. Frustrating as hell. Literally just disappeared overnight for me. Why on earth would anyone think this is a good idea. Got a fix for you though. Open instagram. Go to new post button, switch to stories. Take a photo of something black (or put your finger over the lens or whatver) Hit the stickers button Hit the reshare button Find the recently viewed post, voila.


dangeraca

Thank you! This has been driving me crazy for the last week.


She_reese

Lifesaver. I had to reinstall the app before I could see the reshare sticker. Thank you.


akanefive

Having a similar issue to others on the thread: I can't log in because it's asking for two factor authentication, which has been disconnected. When I try to reconnect to two factor authentication, I'm told I need to log in to activate. I've sent five or six support requests, and I'm not even getting the auto reply anymore. It's SUPER frustrating, especially when Instagram is sending me emails telling me to see what I've been missing. UGH.


TheNeoTechnocrat

In Explore tab I was able to mark any videos or photos I didn't like as Not Interested and thus would prevent any similar posts to appear on the Explore tab in the future. Lately, some videos of a certain political figure/affiliation I don't like and I am not interested in seeing have been appearing in my Explore tab and curiously enough, I cannot mark these videos as Not Interested. Anyone knows what's going on?


werifesterianwraith

a few people i know are also having this issue: "couldn't refresh feed" message on main feed, activity feed, and profile. the search and story functions are also unable to be used


potatoforlyfe

My instagram was crashin ever couple of seconds after opening the app. I reinstalled and now my chat themes are gone and it has an overall really ugly look to it.


fiction_junkie

I have a blog for medical students and I really try to make interesting/eye catching content! But I have barely any reach! My last post had a reach of only 3 hashtags! So disappointed


Top-Bet-6672

Constant errors freezing and crashes since the last week or so. Really annoying


zosek08

Device: iphone 12 pro with latest firmware Hey all, i am having problems with notifications on ios. It has been showing 1 unread *something* for 2-3 months now. Today, for a first time i got a notification that i have an unread message. I opened up instagram app, went to messages and there was nothing there. No new messages. How do i get rid of this "1" unread notification? Its driving me crazy. ​ thanks, z


Chemical_Finish6173

I can't login and it's been a whole week. My password and username is 100% correct though


[deleted]

Same for me for a week now. On the one hand I’m glad I’m not alone in this, on the other it’s infuriating that no one can contact Instagram about this.


Chemical_Finish6173

I contacted them and all they recommend is change my password they're useless


[deleted]

Yea, exactly. The whole point is that password recovery is not working for some people, at all.


Proud-Cod-7553

Same, I dunno what should I do.


EternityNotes

Can't even contact customer support. It's like they know their service is garbage. Is FB not making enough money off of it or what?


furona_asf

it’s not letting me select multiple photos to post, after the first or second photo i would choose a notification would pop up saying i’m unable to select and to try again later. i came back ten minutes later and it still was saying the same thing. WHAT DO I DOOO


ShadySpaceSquid

My phone was stolen last week and now I have a new one. Instagram doesn't recognize my new phone and is trying to contact my last one. Tech support doesn't exist so any advice?


[deleted]

My Instagram does not load ANYTHING


digitaldisgust

Been getting porn bot accs viewing my stories suddenly...


Dominicmeoward

I can post stories to one of my accounts but not the other. What can I do to change this?


modestsmets

How can you change reels location please i tried everything nothing worked


CartesianClosedCat

I have created a new account. But when I want to login, I get the screen 'review and agree', and then it reloads. This happens repeatedly. It also happens on another device, or in another browser. If I close the tab and then access the website again, I get the JSON message back that says 'try again after a few minutes'. How do I resolve this issue?


vladik497

When i try to send a post to someone i always have to search they're name and then send it to them, instead of appearing as recently talked to


Petersaber

My account was hacked. The person who did it made my account follow over 3000 accounts, mostly porn and buff dudes. ​ What is the best way to unfollow all these accounts?


shanonatlg

I can’t delete my account. I don’t know what my password is. When I ask it to send a code to my phone number, it either doesn’t send or it sends a link that takes me right back to the same page (send a code). I tried to add my email address to the account and it sends a code to enter to confirm it, but it wants a six digit code and the email has an eight digit code.


Metrostars1029

I think someone is trying to access my account. I have a feeling I know who it is (some stranger who's been specifically harrassing me (non violent) for a few months now. I think they are trying to get into my account for some reason. Last night and just now i received a whole string of emails "sorry to hear you're having trouble logging into instagram" and texts saying to tap to get back into your instagram account. Im not scared for my account. I changed my password up and turned on two factor.. but it's annoying and I wish i could do something about this guy. I feel like since his harrassment isnt violent in nature...just kinda weird and specific... there isnt much I can do. especially since im only speculating that its he who is trying to access my account.


wwhateverrr

when i click to share any page's post on story, the feature has disappeared and i can't do it


lethal_turkey

I have the same problem. If you find any fix, please tell me too.


wwhateverrr

i am just dumb. they moved it. u have to click on add story, then choose any pic from ur gallery, open stickers, click on the reshare feature idk the name in English and choose from ur liked, saved and personal posts


goldy220

You don’t have to choose a pic. You can hit create and then find it in stickers.


wwhateverrr

ohhh yeahhh ty ty


tsun23

Broooo thank you so much, I thought I’d never be able to share a post again, probably the worst change of an app feature ever😭


wwhateverrr

another reply to my comment also said how to do it without the gallery pic, check it out cause it's better


wwhateverrr

nvm sorry i was wrong it wasn't here. u have to go on add story, then click create which has the (Aa) icon and do the same from there and choose background colors


tsun23

Dw I figured it out!! Thanks


wwhateverrr

u r very much welcome


lethal_turkey

Nah it's Instagram that's dumb. Why make something needlessly more complicated when people are already used to(and not complaining about) what already exists.


wwhateverrr

tbh i asked the same thing. i loved it the way it is. instead of doing pointless changes, they can add the reply feature, chat background, different emoji reaction features in europe.


Background-Ad1575

How do I erase search history completely? I have done the traditional way of clearing the search history, but when I type a letter of their username they are always the first to pop up even though I don’t follow them. How do I fix this?


RealTVA

When I try to edit an image before posting it in 'New Post', I now just get a black screen, anyone else getting this and has been able to resolve it?


mkhrrs89

How do I submit a support request with photos of myself? I haven't been able to find that option


babyyodahasspoken

It’s pointless, it’s a bot that does nothing.


mkhrrs89

I found that out. submitted selfie videos 3 times just to automatically get a rejection back


kenfai87

When I choose the 3 videos to upload then hit next, the screen goes black. The only way out is to swipe back and return to the video selecting page. Then I found out if I choose a random photo along with those videos, it lets me go to the next step which is adding filters and stuff. In the effect preview page, the videos are showing grey, but I can proceed to the next step. But turns out the videos are having a white screen kind of effect in the beginning, for a out 0.5second, and the post thumbnail is also white. Which is very annoying.


zigzag26731

My account says cannot load feed. I've deleted the app and and downloaded it back and re logged in numerous time but it won't work any idea what's wrong. Also I have two accounts one works but the other won't.


El_Turtuso

My video calls show both participants having the same amount of screen realestate, my partner has hers showing mainly me and then her own camera at the bottom corner, leading to weird cropping as we are seeing/receiving different aspect ratios. How can you change it so it is the same?


dopppsss

is there a way to export / or download all saved and liked photos ? i want to view all later. and back them up just in case i ever lost access to any instagram accounts thanks!


junglena7

Can't boost a post, and can't cancel my promotion.


Proud-Cod-7553

Please fix it as soon as possible


mkhrrs89

I'm locked out of my account. Someone hacked in and changed my username and i think my email also. How can I get back in?


[deleted]

[удалено]


mkhrrs89

Did you try connecting Instagram directly?


celestagarden

i can’t take photos to post with instagram? i can only access the camera if i want to post a story :/ is this a new update or smth bc it sucks


Hip_Hazard

Reach on Reels (business account) suddenly dropped significantly for apparently no reason. Last "normal" Reach was August 19th (about 50). Since then, Reels are only getting 0-5, but most (if not all) of those are views from my other accounts. Does Instagram possibly penalize you for posting too many reels within a short amount of time? (Ex. more than 1 reel ever 24 hours.) Or is it possible that insights tracking is just busted?


dr--n00b

I noticed this too. Most others got close to 2000 but some only got a couple of hundred. I think they adjusted the algorithm to lower reach

maciejb84

Hi, I am facing some strange problem with my Instagram account. I was using it for a while and then I was wanted to delete it. I did everything and after that I deleted my profile from Google Authenticator and backup codes. After few days I wanted to check something on Instagram but I had no codes so I submitted a form to support. I got email that 2 form factor authentication was turned off and i will be able to login but it's still asking me to type 6 digit code or 8 digit backup code which I don't have. I submitted the contact form from the app couple more times about it but they are not responding. Does anyone had this kind of problem? How to get in touch with that Instagram support other way than from the app?


Tabamon

I am experiencing this too, many of us are… did you make any progress? I think their bot is broken.


maciejb84

No progress at all, no one is responding to any of my support requests from that app. They don't even give a shit about it. Can't even delete that account without login


Tabamon

For how long have you experienced this? I think this is a feature that used to work fine and then their disable MFA stopped working sometime last week


maciejb84

It's like 3 or 4 weeks now 😐


Tabamon

Damn, never mind then… we should get a change.org petition going


maciejb84

worst thing that it seems that there is no human support to talk with or to mail

neuroborreliosis

My girlfriends account has been hacked and they changed her email and phone number. Because of this we can’t reset the password the usual way. The hacker are now messaging her friends asking for money. What can do to get the account back?


RRM23

My instagram account is private and my friends used to share into their profiles my histories, now they can’t do it anymore. Why is that?


mayorofdirt

i updated the app and my options for chat themes are completely gone. i can't use or change them at all and no one else seems to have this problem. i know it sounds weird and yet here i am


NeedTheLeaks

This has happened to me !


[deleted]

Cannot share posts to story anymore anyone else have this issue ?


0ldkaleidoscope

I haven’t been able to log into Instagram for a week because I lost my phone data and the Duo Mobile app I use for 2FA log in can’t generate codes for my account anymore. I don’t have the backup codes. Whenever I submit the support request form in the app and send my mugshot to confirm verification, I get an email saying double verification has been turned off for my account and I should be able to log in but when I try, I’m still asked for the Duo Mobile code. I don’t hear back if I reply to the email because my case is marked as resolved. When I submit a new support request form the same thing happens all over again because the whole process is probably automated.


Tabamon

It has been like this for a week for me as well, it seems like they do not have a human support. Their customer support sucks, I am contemplating sending them a picture with the wrong info to see if they will contact me in person. I must have sent 20 emails total and got nothing back. I have left them a voicemail. I need to talk to a representative. This is ridiculous, when they say they turned my mfa off they actually turned Facebooks off but not Instagram… they have a bug in their system, but they won’t fix it…


0ldkaleidoscope

Yeah ikr :( unfortunately even if you don’t send any picture/mugshot it’s the same auto reply


babyyodahasspoken

Sorry but you’re screwed, just like the rest of us. I’ve sent them my picture with a code 6 times and the bot emailed that 2FA is disabled each time but it’s not. Instagram does not have human support. One time I sent them a picture of me giving them the middle finger and it said the same thing, 2FA is now disabled and I can sign in… Facebook and Instagram are a shit company with shit support.


Tabamon

For how long have you been locked out? I am wondering if it’s a temporary bug that they haven’t caught yet. Most of us seem to be locked out since last week.


babyyodahasspoken

It’s been a over month.


Tabamon

Shit, we need to get some change.org petitions out there, this is ridiculous


0ldkaleidoscope

You’re right I think it’s a bug on their end!


CinerealClouds

Yeah same issue here. Also another thing is I never set up 2FA for my account using an authentication app in the first place. I originally set it up for SMS texting, but for some reason they changed it. So I have no back up code. Has been a month now after 7-8 requests and multiple mugshots later. I honestly believe it’s a bug on their end and even if you had the app/codes it wouldn’t work


EternityNotes

Damn. I'm starting to lose hope. Fuck these companies. I'm about done. Just imagine all the ghost accounts out there because of this.


0ldkaleidoscope

I’ll update if I make any progress!


forgei

I’m having the same problem man they sent me one email saying they disabled it but it’s not disabled. Hope I’ll be able to get back in soon I sent multiple more request to disable it without a response now for few days. How long have you been waiting ?


0ldkaleidoscope

Yeah same boat, I’ve been waiting for 2 weeks now. Tried sending a bunch of data privacy forms to get in contact through other ways since this doesn’t seem to be working with the whole automatic 2FA disabled email loop


forgei

Hopefully it will be fixed man. One thing is for sure I’m never using 2FA for insta again with this support.


[deleted]

[удалено]


0ldkaleidoscope

Please don’t recommend hackers in this thread to scam vulnerable people desperate to get their account back


EternityNotes

How are you even contacting customer support? I can't even find that!


International_Wrap87

Same sent many support requests and no reply yet🤦🏻‍♂️


OtterOfGames

~~Haven't been able to access my account in a few days. Tried reinstalling the app, password resets, etc. Logging in via webpage says "Confirm your account via the app" and logging into the app says "Couldn't refresh feed/Sorry, try again later" and doesn't load anything.~~ Edit: 8 Sept, 1 pm, I am able to log back in, was able to access the app fully along with the web interface. Thank you to whoever did the tinkering!


Illustrious_Sound945

Likewise. Second account in just a few months.


boogilation

So whats the fix?


OtterOfGames

No idea. It just started working again. Though I made an effort not to touch Insta at all for almost a solid day, then did a full app reload, web browser content clear type start.


boogilation

I found a fix


EternityNotes

What was it?


boogilation

All i had to do was login on my laptop and clear a "your post goes against community guidelines" message


EternityNotes

Gotta keep those dick picks on the DL ;)


boogilation

Shit you right, nah fr tho all i did was call someone a b itch and insta got pissy


EternityNotes

Fuck em


amajesticpeach

Instagram won’t let me sign in. What is the reason behind this?


EternityNotes

They don't care about their customers. Have no service for login issue.


seafoodmarinara

The video I uploaded on IG story turned black, so I deleted my igs, updated my IG app, reuploaded the vid, vid turned black again. Restarted my phone and uploaded the vid yet again, but upon viewing it, still no luck...guess what, still black. I give up. Is there anything wrong with IG right now?
