Drop your Instagram ZIP here

Upload the ZIP from Meta Accounts Center, or just your followers.json and following.json files. Runs 100% in your browser.

No login. No password. Your data never leaves your device.

Why this method is 100% safe

Instagram stopped letting third-party apps read your follower data years ago. The apps that still ask for your password violate Instagram's rules and risk your account. But Instagram gives every user an official way to download their own data — and the answers to "who unfollowed me" are already sitting inside it.

  • Zero password: you never enter a login, token or credential anywhere.
  • Zero ban risk: your account is never touched by any tool.
  • 100% private: your archive is processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to any server.

The 4-step way to find your unfollowers

01

Open Meta Accounts Center

Go to the Meta Accounts Center and click 'Download or transfer information', then choose your Instagram profile.

02

Select only 'Followers and following'

Choose 'Some of your information', check ONLY 'Followers and following', and set the format to JSON. This keeps the file tiny and fast.

03

Download the ZIP

Instagram emails you a download link, usually within 30 seconds to a few minutes. Download the ZIP to your device.

04

Upload it here

Drag the ZIP into the tool below. Everything is processed 100% in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server.

What the report tells you

  • Don't follow back — accounts you follow that don't follow you (your unfollowers)
  • Pending requests — private accounts still waiting on your approval
  • Mutuals — friends following each other back
  • Fans — accounts that follow you but you don't follow back

Pro tip: export everything to CSV so you can keep track of who unfollowed you over time.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check who unfollowed me on Instagram?

Request a data download in the Meta Accounts Center (only 'Followers and following', JSON format), download the ZIP, then upload it to a client-side tool like unfollowSafe. It cross-references your follower and following lists instantly in your browser — no password, no login, no ban risk.

Can Instagram tell you who unfollowed you?

No. Instagram does not show you a list of people who unfollowed you. The only safe, official way is to compare your own followers and following lists from your Meta data download — which unfollowSafe does automatically in seconds.

Why can't I just use an app that logs into my account?

Apps that ask for your Instagram password violate Instagram's Terms of Service and put your account at risk of being hacked or banned. unfollowSafe never asks for your password — you upload the official export and everything runs locally in your browser.

How do I check who doesn't follow me back on Instagram?

Download 'Followers and following' in JSON format from Meta Accounts Center, then upload the ZIP here. unfollowSafe instantly lists every account you follow that does not follow you back, plus pending requests, mutuals and fans.
