IG verified question - the elusive blue check

Hi all. I manage an account for a band which has almost 11k followers and growing. They have a FB page with 22k followers, and a YT channel with only about 2k subs. They also have several real fan accounts on IG and a trademark registration for the band name (for musical performances, songs, etc). They are preparing to release an EP late this month and it sure would be nice to have that blue check. Both members also have individual IG profiles and several fan accounts. They want to apply for verification to IG, but the thing is that I worry that because we have Jarvee running the account, it may flag it. Do you have any experience with this? Is it safe to apply? Should they turn off jarvee during the appilcation process and then restart it or does it not matter? They do not want to turn off jarvee because it has been very helpful for growing their profile. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Maybe you can use the embed browser within Jarvee to do the verification? If not, turn of the accounts within Jarvee, and do the verification after 3-4 days, and after the verification let again 2-3 days and then resume the actions on Jarve. Don't force it or they will flag your accounts

Thanks. Do you mean to apply for the verification through the jarvee EB?

You can try that, why not? But ask Jarvee support first what is their opinion on this.

The account is also accessed though the phone of one member but only while jarvee is on "sleep mode". However, it is loaded for use on the member's phone although he only uses it during those "sleep time" hours designated.

Great idea. I'll reach out to them and see what they say.

Well, i don't think that it would be an issue because if you use any automation tool and not spamming from it then IG will mark it as a human activity. So that's safe

Thank you. I have contacted Jarvee and they asked a few questions about our settings and also suggested using the EB to apply. I am still waiting for more answers from them. Indian, I hope you are right about not spamming. The settings for the account are very conservative - it only comments (~110/day), views stories (25/day), and likes comments (20/day). It does not F/U or do anything else. The owner of the account logs in through his phone while the account is on sleep mode, but otherwise, that is it. Posting is done periodically through the owner from his phone. I have never gotten a PV or any flags for that account.
