I’m trying to check out a private profile and I know the usual answer is to send a follow request, but is there any legit way to see anything without them approving it, or am I out of luck?
You can use Picnob to view private Instagram profiles without sending a follow request or needing approval. This tool allows you to anonymously view Instagram Stories, Highlights, and posts from private accounts. Give it a try for a safe and legitimate solution.
Yeah, honestly, you pretty much have to send a follow request and wait for them to accept. I don’t think there’s any real way around it unless they make their profile public.
