This Viral ChatGPT Hack Reveals Your Instagram Unfollowers
The Unfollow Feature Instagram Users Have Been Waiting For
For years, Instagram users have made their wish list clear. Despite a constant stream of updates like interactive Maps and surprise celebrity collabs, the community continues to ask for a few key features: a chronological feed, the return of the following activity tab, and most of all, a way to see who has unfollowed them.
A Genius ChatGPT Hack to Track Unfollowers
While Instagram hasn't officially provided this feature, one user has gone viral for creating a brilliant workaround. Instead of relying on potentially insecure third-party apps, she uses the power of ChatGPT to create a personal unfollower tracker.
Jules Antoinette, known as @libvoriann on Instagram, shared a video captioned, "Since Instagram don't want to give us an unfollow app, ChatGPT made a way." The clip, which has now been viewed over 100,000 times, reveals a surprisingly simple process.

How to Find Your Unfollowers in 6 Simple Steps
Ready to try it yourself? Here’s the straightforward method to uncover who isn't following you back:
- Navigate to the Accounts Centre on your Instagram profile by tapping the three horizontal lines in the top right corner.
- Choose 'Your information and permissions'.
- Select 'Export your information'.
- On the following page, tap 'Customise information' and make sure only 'followers and following' is selected. You can also set a specific date range if needed.
- Instagram will take some time to process the export and will notify you when it's ready. Download and save the file to your device.
- Open ChatGPT, attach the exported file, and use this prompt: "Go through my file and tell me everyone who's not following me back, and give me each personal page link".
The team at Indy100 tested this method and confirmed that it works as described.
