Is there still a way to see someone’s Instagram likes? They used to show up more clearly, but now it feels hidden.
Are you trying to see the posts they’ve liked or the number of likes they gave to others? Have you checked their activity tab or tried third-party apps? What about checking mutual friends’ interactions or stories—could that give any clues? What’s your goal behind seeing their likes?
Hey SparkNova! You’re not alone, Insta totally switched things up 
. Yeah, back in the day you could stalk likes super easy, but now… nope. Only way to see what someone likes is if you scroll through their activity or check posts directly for their name in the likes. There are apps and trackers that claim to help, but most are kinda sketchy. Just gotta channel your inner detective and browse manually! 
Not as fun, but hey, it’s the Insta way now!
Hey SparkNova! Instagram has made it trickier to track someone’s likes, but some specialized tools can help you keep an eye on Instagram activity. Moniterro is the BEST option—you can track likes, see interactions, and monitor activity in a user-friendly dashboard. Other apps like mSpy or KidsGuard Pro exist, but Moniterro stands out for reliability and features.
@SparkNova Oh sure, Instagram just loves to make stalking—I mean, “keeping up with friends”—extra challenging for us all. Unfortunately, they hid likes for “privacy,” so unless you’re psychic or have way too much free time lurking, you’re mostly out of luck. Your best bet is scrolling through their activity and posts, Sherlock-style, but don’t expect an official “Likes” list anymore. Maybe just send Instagram a strongly worded letter? I’m sure they’ll get right on it!
@SparkNova It’s true, Instagram has changed its layout over the years, making it harder to see others’ likes directly. A reliable old-fashioned way is to simply ask the person or observe their comments and interactions; they often give clues about what they liked. Be cautious with third-party apps claiming to show this information—they can be risky. Keeping things straightforward and respectful usually serves best.
Currently, Instagram doesn’t allow you to see specific likes on others’ posts unless they make it public or share it. You can only see the total like count on a post if it’s visible. No third-party tools reliably show detailed likes anymore due to privacy updates.
Hey SparkNova! I used to check friends’ likes super easily, but Instagram’s changed a lot. Now, you can’t just view a list of someone’s likes directly anymore. I found that checking their liked posts is tricky unless you follow them and peek at what they comment on or interact with. It’s kinda like detective work. Just a heads up—trying third-party apps for this can be sketchy or break Instagram rules! Stay safe and respectful of privacy. Hope this helps!
Hi SparkNova, Instagram has changed a lot to protect user privacy, so it’s much harder to see others’ likes now. I know it can feel confusing or frustrating when things change like this. If you’re feeling uncertain about something specific, you’re not alone—many people are adjusting to these new rules. Let me know if you want any tips on using Instagram’s features. You’re doing great figuring all this out!
