Accessing Your Block List
If you’ve blocked someone on Instagram, there’s an easy way to see a list of those you’ve blocked. Fortunately, Instagram provides an easy way to access a list of your blocked accounts so you can manage it accordingly.
It’s important to note that any blocked account can still mention, follow, or message you, but the person won’t be notified. Let’s take a look at how you can access your block list.
Log into your Instagram account
Logging into your Instagram account on an internet browser is the first step to accessing your block list. On the left of your profile page, you will find a menu bar with an option for “Settings”. Clicking this option will prompt a dropdown menu with several categories listed. Choose the category labeled “Security” to proceed.
From here, you’ll notice a section labeled “Blocked Accounts”. Here, you’ll see everyone you have blocked or requested to be blocked via Instagram’s built-in block feature. Check back periodically if any new accounts have been added, and take further action if necessary!
Go to your profile page
It is easy to view your block list on Instagram. The steps to view your block list are:
- Go to your profile page on Instagram by tapping the profile icon at the bottom right of your home feed.
- Tap on the hamburger menu (three lines) at the top right of your profile page, then tap ‘Settings.’
- Select Privacy from Settings at the bottom of the list and then Blocked Accounts from Privacy Settings.
- All accounts you have blocked will be listed here with an option to unblock them if needed.
Click on the three dots in the top right corner
Accessing your Block List on Instagram is easy when you know where to look. The first thing you’ll need to do is open up the app and go to your profile page, which you can access by clicking the Profile icon at the bottom right corner of your screen.
Once there, click on the three dots in the top right corner to open a menu of options. From here, select ‘Settings’, then ‘Privacy’, and finally ‘Blocked Accounts’. You will now be able to view all accounts that you have blocked from your Instagram feed.
Here, you can check what accounts are on your Block List and, if necessary, unblock them so their posts appear again in your feed.
Select “Settings”
To view the accounts you have blocked on Instagram, you must navigate to your profile page. Then, in the bottom right corner, select “Settings,” represented by the gear icon.
After selecting this feature, you will be shown a page with several options. Find and select “Privacy” from this list and then scroll down until you see “Blocked Accounts”. Select it to open up a list of all the accounts you have previously blocked on Instagram.
This list can be updated at any time. It’s also possible to unblock any profile on the list if they no longer violate your policy or if you wish to view their content again.
Viewing Your Block List
If you’ve blocked someone on Instagram, you may wonder how to view the list of people you’ve blocked. Thankfully, there is a way to do this. In this article, we’ll discuss how to view a list of people you’ve blocked on Instagram and manage your blocked contacts.
Scroll down to the “Privacy and Security” section
Scroll down to the “Privacy and Security” section of your profile on the Instagram app. This is where you will find all your account settings, including setting up a two-factor authentication number and other preferences.
Select “Blocked Accounts” to view a list of people you have blocked from viewing your posts or contacting you on the platform.
You can see a full list of blocked accounts on this page from seeing your content and messages. You can also choose to unblock them if you wish — tap the user name you would like to unblock and follow the prompt to confirm your selection.
Click on the “Blocked Accounts” option
If you need to view or manage the accounts you have blocked on a social media platform, then it is important that you first access the settings menu. Depending on the platform, you can usually find this within the “Accounts” or “Settings” section of the app or website.
Once in the settings menu, look for a “Security” option and click “Blocked Accounts.” This should give you access to a list of all your blocked accounts.
You can then choose whether to unblock any or all of them or leave your block list as is. If needed, you can modify your block settings to create new rules for further blocking.
A list of blocked accounts will appear
Viewing your Block List is simple. On your Instagram account, tap the three horizontal lines icon in the upper-right corner of the home screen, then tap Settings. In the Settings window, tap Privacy and select Blocked Accounts.
A list of blocked accounts will appear. To unblock an account, click on their profile and select Unblock next to their username.
You can also quickly unblock someone from photos, comments, or messages by accessing the content previously shared by that user and selecting Unblock next to their profile photo or username.
You can also block a user you’re following by visiting their profile page and selecting Block next to their profile name or Block from their menu in your Activity Feed/Following list.
When you unblock someone on Instagram, all previous messages with that person should be restored as if you never blocked them.
Unblocking an Account
Unblocking an account on Instagram is fairly simple for anyone to do. To unblock someone, you must view a list of the people you have blocked.
This list can be found on your Instagram profile settings. Viewing the list of people you have blocked is the first step to unblocking them.
Select the account you want to unblock
If you’ve blocked someone on Instagram and then changed your mind, it’s easy to unblock them. To do this, go to your profile page by tapping the person icon at the bottom right of the home screen.
From here, select “Settings” and choose “Privacy” in the list that appears. Tap “Blocked Accounts” to display the list of accounts you’ve previously blocked. You can now select any account you want to unblock from this list.
To confirm your selection, tap “Unblock” on the profile page for your chosen account. When a confirmation box from Instagram asks if you want to unblock this account, tap “Yes” and voila!
The selected account is now unblocked, and all content of individual posts will be visible again in your feed.
Remember, if you can’t find an account you recently blocked in your block list, double-check that it isn’t hidden from view due to any restrictions set during chat conversations with other users.
If so, remove those restrictions first before attempting to unblock them again.
Click on the “Unblock” button
Unblocking someone on Instagram is simple and easy as long as you know where to look. First, locate the “Settings” page from the main menu. Here, you’ll find an option for “Privacy” and an option for “Blocked Users.”
After selecting this option, you’ll be taken to a page that displays a list of people blocked by your account.
To unblock a user, click the “Unblock” button to the right of their name. When clicked, Instagram will display a pop-up that warns you of the consequences of unblocking someone; click “Unblock” one more time to fully complete the process.
Once finished, they can view your profile again and follow or message you whenever possible!
Confirm that you want to unblock the account
Before you can unblock your account, verifying that the account you are attempting to unlock is yours is important. To do this, certain forms of identification must be provided.
This could include providing a valid government-issued photo ID proving the account holder’s identity, proof of residency, or other forms of acceptable ID. If all information checks out, you can proceed with a request to unlock your account.
Conclusion
Now that you know how to see a list of everyone you have blocked on Instagram, it is important to remember why you have chosen to block someone in the first place.
Sometimes, blocking someone is the only way to protect yourself from their unwanted behavior. Lastly, it is important to remember that blocking someone on Instagram is a serious decision and should not be taken lightly.
Summary of how to view and unblock accounts on Instagram
Instagram allows you to block other users so they cannot view your content or interact with you. If you want to view the list of people you have blocked, you can do this easily by following simple steps.
To see the list of accounts that you have blocked, first open the Instagram app and go to your profile page. Then go to “Options” > “Settings” > “Privacy” and select “Blocked Accounts”. A list of all accounts that are currently blocked will appear here.
If you decide to unblock an account from your list at any point, tap on the account name, and a dialog box will appear, giving an option for unblocking the selected user.
By tapping on ‘Unblock,’ the user will be removed from your list of blocked users and will once again be able to access your profile page and content on Instagram.
It is important to note that if any user has been blocked by mistake or in error, they may not appear on the list when first searching due to technical limitations; however, they can still not access your profile even if they received a notification when they were originally blocked.
It is thus important to take extra care when blocking an account from accessing your content or profile on Instagram.
