Frequently asked questions

How can I see who someone recently followed on Instagram?

Instagram no longer shows another person's following list in order. Enter their username in FollowScope and choose Latest Following to see the five most recent accounts they followed, newest first.

Is this still working in 2026?

Yes. Instagram changed how it sorts following and follower lists, and many older tools stopped working. FollowScope is maintained for the current Instagram and was last updated in 2026.

Why is the Instagram following list not in chronological order?

Instagram sorts another account's lists for each viewer, based on things like mutual connections. That is why the order you see in the app does not tell you who was followed most recently.

Do I need to log in with my Instagram account?

No. You never enter your Instagram password, and the account you look up is not notified.

Does it work with private accounts?

No. Only public Instagram accounts can be looked up.

Is FollowScope free?

Yes. You can look up the five most recent entries for free, without an account.
