How to Know if Someone Blocked You on Instagram (2025):
Search their username — if you can't find them, they may have blocked you. Try checking from another account. If their profile shows up there, it’s likely they blocked you. Disappearing messages or comments can also be a sign.
Here’s a concise, updated method in 2025 to figure out who blocked you on Instagram:
Search their username: If they don’t show up in your search but do appear when searched from another account or via a browser (logged out), you’ve likely been blocked
Check your DMs: Open a past chat—if their profile picture is gone or their name appears as “Instagram User,” that’s a strong sign
Try tagging them: Attempt to tag or mention them—if their username doesn't pop up or can’t be selected, you're probably blocked
To see who blocked you on the Instagram app in 2025, search their profile using the app. If it doesn’t appear, try from another account. Missing profile, posts, or “User not found” may confirm you've been blocked.
