Who unfollowed me on Instagram?
This is a general question. Instagram the app doesn’t tell you, who unfollows you, when it happens. All you see is a declining number of subscribers and you’re left staring at the app asking yourself, «Who unfollowed me?» There may be an application that can help with this.
If you’re wondering who your followers are, you’ll probably want to know about some third-party Instagram follower apps that can tell you who clicked that unfollow button on your profile.
Most of these methods require an Android or iOS device.
Make sure you don’t confuse lost followers with Instagram-related issues. For example, when Instagram is not working or arises some problem, it might seem like you’re losing followers for a short time…only to find them where they should be when the Instagram issues are resolved.

Who Unfollowed Me: Manual Path
The easiest way to check who unfollowed you on Instagram is to do it manually, keeping track of the exact number of followers and specific users. If you notice that your number of followers has decreased, you can examine the «Followers» lists of those specific users to see if they are still following you.
This is obviously a very time consuming and impractical job, especially if you have a lot of followers that change regularly. You are much better off using a tool that specializes in tracking your followers and unfollowers.
Instagram restricts apps from analyzing followers
Instagram does use its API for privacy reasons, which means that third-party app developers, which shouldn’t be followed, are much more limited in how they can access users’ followers. If you’ve been trying to use an app that showed that it’s unfollowed you, but noticed that it’s not working, these changes made to the Instagram API might explain why.
However, there are some good third party applications who can help you. Here are three different ones that connect to your Instagram account and tell you some useful information about your followers (and unfollowers).
Follow the meter
Follow Meter is an app that gives you an idea of your Instagram popularity, users, secret admirers and ghost fans. Once downloaded and installed on your iOS or Android device, you will be prompted to sign in to your Instagram account through the app.
Your dashboard will show you your followers as well as new followers, users who don’t follow you, and users you haven’t followed. Some features are only available with in-app purchases, but according to some reviews, Follow Meter has adapted well to changes to the Instagram API, allowing users to still see who unfollowed them.
