Instagram is a great way to connect with friends and family, but it can be difficult to know if someone has accepted your follow request. Here are four ways to check:

  1. Look for a response from the person you sent the follow request to. If they don’t respond within 24 hours, it’s likely they didn’t accept your request.
  2. Check their profile page for any new posts that were made after you sent them the follow request. If they’ve posted something new since then, it’s likely they’ve accepted your request and will now be following you back.
  3. Look for any notifications that your follower has received from you - this will show you whether or not they’ve actually followed you back.
  4. If all else fails, send them a message asking if they accepted your follow request and if not, why not? ..
