Is Instagram recently started to test bots more rigorously?

[IGFella]

Phone verification is a norm now, accounts without sims that is able to re-verify will suck.

IG uses AI for bot detection, there's no "algorithm" like back in the days so things are going to escalate real-quick this year at around oct.

Any info to prove this?

Regarding the thread - Yes, I'm in the same situation. Yesterday added links to 7 accounts and immediately after that 25 accounts including the one I added the links to get a PV. The other 18 were just resting after a PV wave... Ugh, so much money wasted already before even launching the accounts...

If so, it will be difficult.But if this is the case, normal people will also get pva. So there is still have a key point, I did not catch it.

normal people will not get pva since ig looks for more patterns than settings .
i made some test and i can say actions after account creation decide if you get pva . if we are doing anything other than what normal users do... ig will detect it as bot and slap with pva .

You are not the only ones. Even some HQ accounts with mobile proxies are getting PVs as well. Let the accounts rest for a few days, then start up very slow (5-10 follows only, gradually increasing 10-12 per day). By the 5th-6th day, add in the unfollow feature. Do this warm-up for 3 weeks or until you hit the target range for your tool actions.

It’s sad. I have also lost 50 accounts.

In fact, after getting pva, I let the account rest for a week, and then slowly started.But pva has not stopped

What did you do after that?Can you share it?I think your action saved your account.

i honestly have no idea i would have replicated that on multiple accounts but i'll investigate and try to come up with a hypothesis.
