Who doesn't follow
you back?
A browser extension that shows who you follow that doesn't follow you back on Instagram, and exactly who unfollowed you since last time. One click. No login, no password, no risk to your account.
Get the extension
Free download. It runs entirely on your device, and installs in under a minute with the steps below.
Private by design. Followback never asks for your Instagram login. Your lists (and who you unfollow) are read and compared right here in your browser and never leave it. The only thing it ever sends is an anonymous count when you install and scan, no usernames, no lists, nothing that identifies you. Scanning is read-only; unfollowing is optional and only happens when you tap it, on your own account, one at a time.
What you get
Opens automatically
No data export, no upload, no waiting on an email. A panel opens itself when you're on Instagram and reads your lists instantly.
Who doesn't follow back
See exactly who you follow that doesn't follow you, with their photos, and unfollow any of them in one tap.
Unfollow tracking
Each scan is saved on your device, so the next one shows precisely who unfollowed you and who's new since last time.
Private by design
Runs in your browser using your own logged-in session. No login form, no password; your lists never leave your device (just an anonymous usage count).
How to install
A one-time, one-minute setup. Until Followback is on the Chrome Web Store, you load it yourself, which is exactly why it can promise your data never leaves your machine.
