this not affect on other accounts.

Often times a shadow ban on one account doesn't always effect the other accounts, however, a suspension may have an effect. Go to the account settings and under "account status", remove the violated post and the account should be in good standing.

I have two suspended accounts on that device that I don't know what I did. The first account that got suspended i wasn't even posting anything on it, just for surfing. Instagram just suspending accounts these days for no reason What's the way forward?

Depends on why they got shadowbanned. If it's fingerprinting or access patterns, then it's fair to say the risk is high. Goes the same way for IP if the other accounts share them.

is you have multiple accounts on 1 ip it might flag other accounts

I can say with my experience: Shadow ban can affect other accounts on the same device Instagram tracks device ID IP and user behavior If your actions look similar across accounts the system might link them. To reduce risk use separate devices or clean browser profiles avoid repeating the same hashtags or posting patterns and give each account its own identity and activity style.

Sometimes yes and sometimes not, it depends if your account is shadowbanned or your device.

yes, it can, especially if you use the same IP for these multiple accounts. Because IG can easily detect that these multiple accounts are used the same IP and device

Yes, if one of your accounts gets shadowbanned, it can absolutely affect other accounts on the same device, especially if you’re using the same IP, device ID, or browser session. Instagram monitors the entire environment, so even if your other accounts are clean, they can still get flagged just by association. To avoid this, keep your accounts isolated: separate browsers or app containers, no shared cookies, and most importantly, unique IPs. Mobile proxies work great here since they give you legit user-like signals and help minimize the risk of account linkage.

While Instagram doesn't explicitly confirm shadow banning's reach across accounts there's anecdotal evidence suggesting a possible connection. If one account on your device faces limited visibility it's conceivable that Instagram's algorithms might flag the device itself. This could lead to decreased reach or engagement on other accounts linked to that same device. However it's important to remember that Instagram's algorithms are complex and constantly evolving. A shadow ban on one account doesn't automatically guarantee the same fate for others. Factors like content similarity posting frequency and the specific nature of the suspected violation likely play a role. Ultimately it's best to monitor your other accounts closely for any unusual drops in engagement or reach and ensure you're adhering to Instagram's community guidelines across all profiles.

Instagram flags device fingerprints, not just account behavior. If one account gets hit and you're managing multiple from the same device/IP, the others are at risk for lower reach or flagging too.
