Câu trả lời ngắn
An Instagram action block usually lifts within 24–48 hours; repeated violations extend it to 1–2 weeks. Stop mass following/liking, remove third-party apps and tap 'Tell us' if the button appears to contest the block.

STEP 01
Stop all automation immediately
Remove follow/like bots, automation apps and browser extensions. Continued use extends the block.
STEP 02
Check the appeal button
If the notice shows 'Tell us', tap it. Instagram reviews automatically; false positives can clear within minutes.
The button doesn't appear on every block. Without it, waiting is the only path.
STEP 03
Revoke third-party apps
In Settings > Website permissions > Apps and websites (or the Accounts Center), remove access for unknown apps.
STEP 04
Change your password
If access looks suspicious, update it under Settings > Security. Sign out other sessions.
STEP 05
Wait 48 hours with low activity
Avoid mass actions during the block. It usually lifts in 24–48 hours; repeats take longer.
Using automation while blocked can trigger permanent restrictions.
Mẹo
- Even manual accounts risk blocks above 100+ follows/likes per hour.
- New accounts have lower limits — be conservative in week one.
