IG botting while traveling abroad?

[Christos79]

I'll be traveling abroad for the next 6 months and trying to figure out how best to manage my personal Instagram accounts when I'm not in the US. Basically I want Jarvee to be running as usual but I still need to be able to log in from my phone from wherever I am to post, engage, etc.

Currently running Jarvee on an Amazon VPS with private US proxies. Everything is working perfectly and don't want to screw things up. Some of the ideas I've come up with pros/cons are below. None of these are ideal, so hoping there's a simpler solution I've overlooked.

- Post all content through Jarvee and US proxies - This would clearly work but I wouldn't be able to post at will from my phone throughout the day. (Personally I'm OK with this but traveling with 5 other people who's accounts I also manage and they are FIRMLY against this plan.)
- Find proxies in Mexico to buy (been looking around and not really impressed with anything I've found) - this would be great if I could find any that I felt comfortable using.
- Setup my own private proxies with Rasp Pi's and place them at friend's houses here in Mexico. I need like 10 proxies now, and another 30-50 in the next few months so this isn't really ideal.

Another idea I had was to block out a chunk of time every day where Jarvee is not active and have my friends login to their accounts then. I suspect this is going to get flagged right away though as there would be login's happening from both the US and Mexico on the same day.

Thanks for the help!

UPDATE: Out of curiosity I turned Jarvee back on 2 days ago and to my surprise no issues so far. Got a couple like blocks but no verification loops or anything like that.

So as it stands right now I'm running Jarvee with fairly conservative settings (300 follows & 600 likes per day) with US proxies while my friends are using Instagram on their phones in Mexico all day long.

I'm pretty surprised Instagram is allowing simultaneous sessions from different countries. I'll update if anything changes (hopefully not).

I would add a sleep time to be sure
Do you create or bought these accounts?

All the accounts were created over 5 years ago and used extensively over that period as personal accounts with zero botting. I think that's the only reason this is working.

I really don't think Instagram cares about botting. Bots drive engagement, far more than your average account. The longer your average person spends browsing Instagram, the more money Facebook makes.
As long as you aren't spamming ridiculous amounts of likes and follows, you are being far too paranoid.

Yeah I think you're right. I've always been overly cautious because I've only ran client accounts and never wanted to screw something up and lose other more lucrative business.

You will really be fine, most of my clients & my own pages (some of which are on my phone) are based in the UK.

My proxies are all USA & Asia

No issues, just keep account activity within reason and set a sleep timer!
IG doesn't care about botting, just about abusing it!

I travel a lot and I’ve bottled at the same time. I tend to turn mine off before I board a flight (so if something happens I wouldn’t be out of service for a day). Then I just let them rest and would only run them sporadically for like a day max. I was in 8 countries within 2 weeks, and I didn’t have issues.
