JAKARTA - Almost all social media have their respective terms and policies, and as users, we must follow them.

Like Instagram, Meta's social media platform has its own policies. Meta has its own AI system to review content that violates its policies, and then the account will be blocked automatically.

Unfortunately, there are still many users who don't know in detail what policies have been violated, so their accounts are blocked. So how do you know if your Instagram account is blocked? What can you do to get it back? Here's the explanation.

How to Check Instagram Account Status

You can check your Instagram account status to see if you've posted something that goes against Instagram Community Guidelines. All you have to do is:

Check whether your post was deleted due to Community Guidelines. By opening the profile > click the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) > Settings > Account > Account status.

If you have never violated the Instagram community guidelines, it will appear with the caption "You haven't posted anything that affects your Account Status."

But if your content is deleted, tell me why your content is deleted and ask for a deletion review, if you think Instagram made a mistake.
