I always blocked low-tier Countries that can't access OF via the IG paid partnership feature eg India, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq etc.

Lots of people reporting it doesn't work any more and now my US reach is down from 30% to 7%

Is there any alternative methods to increasing US reach and restricting low tier Countries?

Yeah, I’ve noticed that too — the paid partnership geoblocking seems kinda broken lately. I used to filter out low-tier countries the same way, but now I’m seeing random traffic from everywhere. What’s been working better for me is tweaking the posting time (around peak US hours), using region-specific hashtags, and collaborating with US-based accounts. Also, if you run promos or shoutouts, make sure they’re from creators with mostly US audiences — it makes a big difference over time.
 
Are you saying that you are still getting clicks from the other countries? or just the reach is lower? If the reach is lower, but your still able to reach only the US, that means the cost per click is higher.

try focusing on us based hashtags time zones and audience interactions since blocking options seem less effective now

Yeah, IGs geo filter is broken now. Best bet run real ads targeting US, post on US hours, use trending US sounds, and collab with US creators.

How do you do the partnership ad thingy? I have multiple accounts so I could do A/B tests and report back.
 
You could try tweaking your captions and hashtags to be more us focused, and experiment with Stories timing sometimes engagement patterns matter more than strict geo filters.
