No, Instagram does not tell you who viewed your profile. It does not provide any feature or notification to users about who has visited their profile, regardless of the type of account (personal, business, or creator)
. Instagram intentionally keeps profile browsing private and anonymous to protect user privacy and encourage free browsing without fear of being monitored
. However, Instagram does track profile views internally for analytics purposes, especially for business and creator accounts, which can see the total number of profile visits over a period (e.g., last 7 or 30 days) through Instagram Insights. But this data does not reveal the identities of the visitors—only the aggregate count is available
. The only exception where you can see who viewed your content is Instagram Stories. When you post a Story, you can see exactly who has viewed it for up to 24-48 hours while the Story is active. After that, the viewer list disappears, but you can still see the total number of views if you save the Story
. Beware of third-party apps claiming to show who viewed your Instagram profile—they are unreliable, violate Instagram’s policies, and may compromise your account security
Summary:
- Instagram does not show who viewed your profile.
- Business accounts can see total profile visit counts but no visitor identities.
- You can see who viewed your Instagram Stories while they are active.
- No legitimate third-party app can reveal profile visitors.
This privacy approach is consistent as of 2025 and is unlikely to change soon
