See who actually unfollowed you on Instagram — without ever logging in. Most unfollower trackers ask for your Instagram password the moment you open them. Within hours, Instagram emails you about a suspicious login. Sometimes your account gets locked. Sometimes it gets banned. Either way, a stranger now has your credentials. Bleed works differently. You type your Instagram handle. Bleed looks up the public profile. You confirm it's you. That's the entire connection step — no password, no WKWebView login screen, no OAuth, no cookies, no session. Instagram never sees a login attempt on your account because Bleed never makes one. Tracking a private account requires its owner to switch it to public temporarily — Bleed will not pretend to be you to get around that. What you get: LOST FOLLOWERS The headline feature. Every scan diffs the live follower list against your local history and surfaces exactly who unfollowed you, when. Grouped by Today / Yesterday / Previous 7 days / Previous 30 days so a long history stays readable. NEW FOLLOWERS, MUTUALS, NOT-FOLLOWING-BACK The full relationship breakdown for every tracked account. Filter, search, scroll. Verified, private, and public follower counts at a glance. PER-METRIC TREND CHARTS Every scan writes a snapshot. Open any account to see follower count, following count, and engagement-adjacent metrics charted across time. You finally get a longitudinal view of your audience instead of a single number that resets every time you refresh the IG app. UP TO 5 ACCOUNTS SIDE BY SIDE (Bleed+) Track your own handles plus the creators you watch, the brand competitors you monitor, the friends and partners you care about. Each account has its own independent history; switching between them is one tap from the dashboard's profile picker. LOCAL-ONLY HISTORY Every follower list, every diff, every chart point lives on your iPhone. Bleed's backend has no database — it's a stateless proxy that fetches Instagram data and forgets it the moment your scan completes. Delete the app and the history is gone. There is no server account to delete because there is no server account. NO INSTAGRAM SECURITY ALERTS Because Bleed never logs in as you, Instagram never sends "we noticed a new login" emails when you scan. No locked accounts. No revoked sessions. No two-factor headaches. FREE TIER THAT'S ACTUALLY USABLE Free users can track 1 account up to 1,000 combined followers + following — that's most personal Instagram accounts. Same diff engine, same lost-followers list, same trend chart Bleed+ users get. The paywall is real but the free tier isn't a teaser.
