How to get out of the challenge verification loop on Instagram?

UPDATE

I could include 12 new instagram accounts today on my FollowLiker, all of them using proxies from Blazingseollc, only 1 account got login error after some hours but it's not related to the verification code loop as before and it was not using any proxy but my mobile photo sheared connection.

It worked only after to do the update to the newest FL version.

PS. I had to log each doing this process:
1 - Ask the customer to logout his app
2 - Log the account on my phone (instagram app)
3 - Log the account on the browser using the same phone sheared connection
4 - Log the account on FollowLiker
5 - Log the account with the proxy

I tried to do differently but this is the only way that worked for me.

Basically everything got back to the normal here... good luck for you guys.

I have a question - it might not be sensible.
As we know by continuous trial and error that the issue arises ONLY when you connect via API and you're on a server (server IP / proxy)
For the loop to come - you have to have a combination of API Login + Server Script (IP/Proxy)
Logging in via mobile/laptop behind a proxy does not result in a loop.
Logging in via API on a local IP does not result in a loop.

With all that said I have a question -
Does the given condition make the API useless?
I mean who would even write script and host it locally? That won't make sense for serious apps.
Since almost everyone would use API login ONLY when they want to host a script on a server and now they can't then the API has become useless hasn't it?

FYI - the one main reason it is not adding up for me is that my custom bot is NOT for automation of general actions. My custom bot does not like/comment/follow/unfollow. It is only for analytical purposes and it gathers data. Additionally the accounts I use for this bot (2-3 accounts) are 100% clean and not botted. I never used proxy - just Digital Ocean server.

Someone above said that this move - if it is an intentional one by Instagram is pretty harsh and I couldn't agree more. I could think of a million better ways to improve spam filter but to block entry to platform on the condition that API + Proxy = SPAMMER that is too harsh and paranoid.

A bit too much of a generalization in my opinion.
Again as I said - I might be completely wrong.

What proxies did you buy from them?

What if I’m using Followliker on a VPS, will I log into the account on my phone > log into account on VPS browser > log into account on Followliker on VOS?

Free proxies. I'm not buying yet cause I'm still in search of high quality proxys

what if your running 200 accounts be very hard work .

if what your saying true that means resedentual ip should work with all accounts perfect .

unless it the cookie theory or a session not setting with private proxies only resedentual ip

As I said I used private proxies for Instagram from Blazingseollc.. and yes, you can try this sequence.

Hey! My bot is itself not stable yet (API Login). I did login for 6-7 hours out of the blue today but again hit the checkpoint issue.
My bot is NOT for engagement. It doesn't like/comment/follow/unfollow.
Its for deeper analytical purposes.
If you still would like it then I can share some code of it with you - its written in Ruby.
There is not 'interface' just FYI. Its pure code. You can perform actions via console.

I had created a custom bot in Ruby for insta quiet a while ago. I can give it a try if you permit me.
Perhaps I can solve this problem.
 
Just seems that **** will not update itself :(

Some people had a theory that it is about what IP is completing the challenge (for example, the checkpoint is triggered by a bad server IP, and then completed by user home IP somewhere else in the world, which insta sees is not same ip/location = so fail).

I tried this theory... started login on server IP. Got checkpoint. Used my server IP as my mobile phones proxy and completed challenge via the phone. So I 100% perfectly did both start challenge + mobile challenge completion via the exact proxy IP!

Still fails. it is not about what IP is starting / finishign the challenge :(

They are totally 100% targeting proxies :( and not letting my proxy do anything relating login :( only from home ISP login works :(

One more thing....... workaround exists: Login and complete challenge from my home ISP. Then move cookies(session) to server.

Then the server is logged in. Because challenge for that "device ID session file whatever" was completed by a good IP. So I guess insta sees that the session is already validated and doesnt care that it moves to anotehr IP (doesnt care that that it moves to a bad server IP)

So if you guys wanna bot right now the only way to do it is to login from home then move sess to server.

But I have a bad feeling about this. All insta has to do to block this trick is to do "if a valid login session is created from good IP, but resumes fro mbad IP, kick it out and give it challenge again". so i dont think this workaround will work for muc h longer, so use it wile you still can :(

Plus we still have the other problem: Since they can identify our bad server IPs enough t oblock our logins, then its just a matter of time until they add more protection features (such as blocking us totally from even connecting at all from bad IPs and then its game over) :(

This "block logins from detected bad IPs" is probably just their 1st stage of this new antispam feature. They will analyze the results and if this antispam test goes well for them, they can begin to extend it to more things such as banning or kicking us instantly when we try to like or follow or comment or DM from our fully-detected bad IPs. :((( Instagram have us by the balls now and can do ANYTHING :(

Is there a way to hide our proxy IPs??

Is it possible that Instagram just decided to kick out all of us?

Any person or company who tells you that this is a bug is lying to its customers or hopelessly dreaming. This is Instagram's new antispam against bots and they will keep improving it, this is just their first test.
 
1. verify acc with phone app trough phone number (without proxy/with mobile IP)
2. remove proxy on account in FL
3. share mobile connection to pc where FL is running and let accounts to do some actions without proxy
4. stop FL, put proxy back
Accounts are not getting verification this way again.

But another problem presists - followblocks (does not work with FL and mobile IP too)
