FAQ
Do I need to be logged into Instagram?
Yes. The count uses your own Instagram session in the browser, so you must be logged in on a tab.
Does it work with private accounts?
Only with public accounts (or ones you already have permission to view). We don't access private data.
Is it safe? Do you collect my data?
Yes, it's safe. Everything happens in your browser and the extension sends no data to our servers or third parties.
Is the count exact?
It's the count Instagram exposes, refreshed every few seconds. The change reflects the difference between readings.
