01 — Step-by-step fix
Step-by-step fix
Stop all activity
When the block notice appears, quit following, liking and commenting. Continued activity extends it.
Remove third-party apps
Uninstall follower/like bots from your phone and revoke their account access.
Appeal from the notification
If the notice offers 'Report a problem', use it. False blocks typically clear within hours.
Verified accounts (email/phone) get appeals approved more often.
Complete account verification
Verify phone and email under Settings and privacy > Account. Verified accounts get shorter blocks.
Return gradually after 24 hours
Keep activity low the first day, then return to normal. Don't suddenly follow hundreds.
Tips
- Unofficial current limits: ~30 follows and ~100 likes per hour — stay under.
- Switching between multiple accounts quickly raises block risk.

Can the block become permanent?
Repeated automation and mass actions can lead to permanent action restrictions or account suspension. Blocks get longer each time.
Do my videos keep getting views during the block?
Yes. The block only stops interactions; your videos stay in the feed and keep accumulating views.
