Hi guys

I have been a very happy user of followliker for many many years.
But today I am facing different issues. From log in issues to scraping. I do not know if this is due to followliker or if this is a general issue with all bots on the market? IG has truely made it very hard.

Before I invest more in any other bot and new VPS platform, I wanted to hear your oppinion.
Basically I can read that Jarvee and Instadub are the best options to choose.

I always run my settings low. I like to be on the safe side. No risks taken when botting. I make sure to make it look like as human as possible.

But my question is to you guys who basically are using one of these bots, do you guys also experience above mentioned issues running JARVEE or Instadub? In that case I see no reason changing over. I might as well wait for followliker to come up with some sort of an update.

But if you guys experience switching over to either JARVEE or instadub has made a great change and your not facing same problems as with followliker, please let me know.

I look forward to hear your inputs.

Thanks in advance.
 
I'm not heavily in the IG game, but I've been using https://www.followplanner.com/

They have a 7-day trial and it's web-based which I like a lot. Owner is here on BHW you can get 15% discount I think.
 
Jarvee is the best and has the best team behind it I'd imagine. Every bot has its problems but Jarvee have always solved every issue as quickly as possible and I don't think anyone reasonable can blame Jarvee for ongoing IG problems. If you are having constant problems with this software, it's probably your proxies or accounts that are the issue.

Nahh.. Accoubts working all fine on both browser and mobile. Also changed ip on vps. Followliker does log in and work fine as long as no parameter rather than follow and unfollow is picked. If you start retrieving users it'll hit a login issue and if you start limiting using follow users having this amount of followers or post, it starts giving instagram sent several error issue. But once u untick these options, it does run. This can't be any account related issue or proxy. Atm. I am only botting 2 accounts and for 2 accounts no proxy is needed. All my other accounts are resting cause these are not my own accoubts, which I do not wanna mess with.

I generally believe people are very fast at blaming proxies as the main issue here. I mean once someone starts hitting issues, normally they stop all activity, and use one or a couple of profiles to test with. And that is ofcourse on different IP. Could be your home pc etc.

But once the issue is persistent, you start looking at the bot. And when you figure, that different settings and options are triggering this, then you might say the source of the problems is found.

But going back to my main question. I can hear you saying JARVEE and the team is thumbs up.

I believe same rules go for JARVEE. Running 2 accounts for now, does not need proxy or?

It could be nice to know, what people who used to be users of followliker having had similar issues have to say about moving to JARVEE or instadub? Are they experiencing anything better or similar?
 
A private bot is the best. But from the public ones: Nr.1 Jarvee, nr.2 Jarvee, nr.3 Jarvee, nr.4 GMT. If you have shitloads of accounts but no money got for GMT.
 
I cant find nothing better then jarvee even if I run just 8 accounts, jarvee it's the best.

There are no current issues with login / scraping. Sure some accounts hit the challenge verifications, but these are solvable automatically (sms/email) so I don't think are the same you are having know. However, as with all bots at the moment, some accounts are not able to post images without the images being deleted. You can read this all over BHW at the moment. Many theories are put forward, but no one knows for sure, lots of people are blaming proxies, which is probably a part of it, but I don't think the whole picture. Some users also hit action blocks at lower levels than they did. Again, only affecting a few. Those are the current on going issues, but they seem to be down to improved algorithm changes at ISG and effect all bots.

If you have specific questions please let me know. Otherwise I will leave this thread for unbiased discussions :)
 
Since everyone is throwing in tools to the conversation, I'll throw in mine:

My free tool (thread) specializes in scraping Instagram posts. It doesn't do anything else, but it's very good at scraping posts (by username, hashtag, etc. and then filtering posts after that based on likes, comments, etc). I created it for the BHW community so if you have anything you'd like me to add to it just let me know. I realize it doesn't do everything you're looking for, but hey it's free and it's a web app and it makes it super quick and easy to get quality content. Cheers.

Thabks for your reply. So out of what you state this must be an Followliker issue, since login issues appear, e-mail verification loops at every log in attempt. I mean, you recieve an verification notification within followliker, and when you provide the code, it starts running, but then when you restart the bot, it hits verification again. Also this appears when selecting different parameters in followliler. Like limition you scrape or retrieving users. I have read, that this has not only affected me, but also many others using followliker, which you can read here on bhw.

Maybe lack of updates?

As mentioned before. Profiles work perfectly on private pc and cell phone. Also IP on VPS is changed.

These problems also started within the last 2-3 weeks. Never ever have I experienced anything bad with FL. Untill recently.

Like to hear your oppinion on this one :)

Honestly, I have no idea. I know nothing about their product. But you are best to contact them for support, they should know more. It could be your accounts, it could be your IP, it could be their product. All bots have issues from time to time as we fix bugs, we add some new ones, that is just how it is with programs that require constant updates, there will be issues from time to time (instadub included). The important thing to be aware of, how quickly do the developers reply to support and acknowledge and fix these issues.

Fact of the matter is, things are not static. ISG doesn't stay the same. They are constant updating, improving bot detectons, proxy detections. So just because something worked last week, doesn't mean it will next week and it might be nothing to do with the bot. If you are using a VPS IP, or proxy, 9/10 this is the cause. It could have been detected, maybe not even you, but some on a similar IP at the same host has been spamming hard and you got caught up in the block. Users always tell me, "it isn't my proxy" or "the proxy provider has told me the proxy is working fine". When I Get access to the account / proxy and test myself, the issue is the proxy. Proxy providers imo cannot be trusted, they always blame the bots without any tests, but when I confirm, it is the proxy 9/10.

End of the day, there is no way to know for sure in this game, it is all just speculation.
You will always have problems / feature requests / improvement requests so going forward is a good idea to know how responsive the bot developers are.

None of this really helps you though. But I think jarvee has a 7 day free trial, we have a 30 day money back guarantee, which is basically a 30 day trial with a deposit. Get them all and see if they work for you, maybe yes, maybe no. If not reach out to the support departments and check how responsive helpful they are. You will always have problems / feature requests / improvement requests so going forward is a good idea to know how responsive the bot developers are.


Thanks alot for taking time and giving your honest review
 
Hey There! I was also just about to open up a thread about Jarvee vs Instadub. Because my knowledge says that both seem to have the same features? And for the price I would 100% choose Instadub. Eventhough some websites say „no to Instadub“.. I don’t see any reason. Does a newbie like me can understand Instadub? Or do I need different skills for that. Are there are discount codes for Instadub or maybe a Black Friday discount? Since the man himself of Instadub is here. Maybe he can give me some answers :)
 
Just my 5 cents:

Cheap and good, but semi automated, cuz its impossible to email verify accs in bulk in auto mode - GMT2
Full auto with a lot of features inside - Jarvee

Hi, cannot go into too much detail due to BHW self promotion rules but as you asked a direct question I hope it is ok.

Are there are discount codes for Instadub
I always give a 10% discount to BHW who ask, so just email / PM and ask :)

Does a newbie like me can understand Instadub? Or do I need different skills for that.
Of course (not sure what else you expect me to reply here tbh :) ) However, it does work differently to other bots out there, which is where the viewpoint "it is difficult to use" comes from, it isn't, just different.

If you want more indepth answers / questions it is probably best to contact m directly
 
Jarvee is the best for IG
followplanner has no support help, and every week there's a problem, so i stopped using it
